welcome to their famous friday i believe
that whatever goal you have whatever
obstacles in front of you somebody has
already accomplished it and the fastest
way to reach your goal is to model
success find someone who’s already gone
out and done that and apply their
strategies to your business so today’s
lesson is from Pierre Omidyar who is the
founder of ebay and the lesson is
explore so impure me dr started ebay he
was a computer programmer he had a safe
stable job he was a website designer on
the side freelancing way to make some
extra money and his girlfriend was an
avid collector of pez dispensers she was
a collector and she was frustrated
because she didn’t have anybody to
connect with who was also into pez
dispenser she didn’t have anybody to
sell to buy from trade with she would be
part of a community of other people and
she didn’t know anybody who collected
Pez dispensers so he said hey why don’t
I build you a website build a website so
that people can connect over Pez
dispensers buy sell trade meet each
other and have a good time so he
launched eBay which is short for
electronic bay and this surprise people
started signing up people started buying
selling trading Pez dispensers and then
other collectors started joining as well
people who wanted to buy sell trade
barbie dolls and train sets and baseball
cards started joining and he said hey

I’m providing a valuable service of
people maybe I can make some money off
of it and he started charging small fees
and he would make 25 cents fifty cents a
dollar two dollars offer these
transactions and people would mail him
checks thanking him for the service and
paying him the feet and eventually got
to the point where he could quit his job
where he could hire people part-time and
then full time and eventually becoming
