Hey Evan, I LOVED this one. I am a very big fan of Martha Stewart. My favorite rule is #9 BE YOUR OWN CUSTOMER. I have heard you allude to that when you were talking about how you made videos that really mattered to you. Thanks for being a great inspiration and sticking to YOUR PATH :) Cleveland

[@allisonarcher7729]

Loved the video. Liked the 10 points for success... favourite was Be curious and run with your idea, which is what I am trying to do. I entered an innovation competition and became a semi finalist, but developed tons of other ideas since I came up with that one. Hoping to get one or two products to market. Love that she seems so pleasant and inspirational .

[@EvanCarmichael]

Glad you loved the video, you found her inspiring and you took action to execute your idea Allison. :) More power to you! Always #Believe in yourself. #BTA568 Shine

[@GregCheekSpeaks]

Thanks Evan. That would be awesome

[@stanlindert6332]

I've always loved Martha Stewart. She kind of pissed off the good old boys over on wall street though. What a controlled spirit through. I'll bet here dad and mom were great to learn from. This kind of advice is worth millions to the person who works smart.

[@EvanCarmichael]

Stan Lindert Thanks for sharing Stan :)

[@alinterpretations]

Would LOVE to see: Barbra Streisand: beauty, TRUE talent AND being the epitome of class that has transcended time/generations. (Such a vital quality largely missing from entirely too many "modern" women.)

[@JamesNathanielHolland]

It's easy for Warren Buffet and Martha Stewart to give these trite, 20/20 hindsight pointers from their CEO chairs of their billion dollar comapnies. Anyone self-made, who didn't already come from connections, family money or fame, all had a tipping moment, 'dumb luck,' destiny, or whatever you want to call it, that gave them the opportunity to make themselves into the individuals they are today. You can't make these moments, they are made to you. Evan, could you do a series on precisely this theme for these successful individuals and others? I think that would be more helpful to those of us still caught in the clutches of financial struggle and mediocrity.

[@vanessajay1077]

LEARN SOMETHING EVERYDAY!

[@EvanCarmichael]

Exactly! :) #BTA1212 Luka

[@paramaroy4446]

I liked the rule of having a plan.
