I'm currently reading, "Start something that matters." by Blake Mycoskie, the revolutionary person who started the TOMS company.
In the book, Blake describes the story of TOMS and how he began his first steps, after a few failures early on, Blake eventually developed the idea of starting TOMS on a trip to Argentina. While I'd like to give you a high synopsis on the book, I really have only started it. Take comfort in the idea that Blake's shoe company takes the idea of selling one pair of shoes, and donating the other pair to a child in need in a third world country. The idea has turned into a great success and Blake's company has greatly taken off. Anyway if you get a chance, go pick up his book. I will keep you updated on more of the stuff that comes out of the book. I can't wait to keep reading it, as it's hopefully stirring up some deep motivation in me.
