described polymath. Shaun's been involved with the bustling

Jeopardy on ABC, worked as a screenwriter





Throughout the conversation, you'll hear Shaun cite philosophers
in response to open ended questions regarding entrepreneurship
and his life decisions.


Valuable Life Lessons:


You have to be able to think and plunge and reflect

Be reliable, dependable, and able to deliver lessons from
being a promoter in Miami.

Too much reflection and no action so you have to combine
being able to reflect

Bang the wall everyday, the mountain will not be climbed for
you.

"It's not you who's eating the idea, it's the idea that's
eating you.






From my count, we recalled Plato, Tolstoy, Gerta, Aristotle
