Today’s show is a fabulous interview about career creation. My guest is Scott Ginsberg. Scott is most well-known for his Love of name tags. He’s worn a name tag every hour of every day for 5,241 consecutive days!

This decision was, in many ways, the foundation of his empire. It formed the story for his first book. Since then, he’s written a total of 27 books on a variety of topics.

I’m utterly fascinated by Scott’s career. You’ll hear that in the interview today.

We discuss:

• Scott’s utter lack of planning for his career?
• The power of a positive Family environment
• The value of being remarkable
• Input vs. output vs. throughput
• The importance of excellence vs. prolificacy

Enjoy the interview! It’s super fun!
