UNSCRIPTED Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Entrepreneurship ( PDFDrive )

I have seventeen minutes left to finish this chapter before driving to the gym.
Instead, I ignore my self-imposed deadline and pause from my writing.
As I look around me in total comfort and convenience, I am overwhelmed
with gratitude and humility, not just to God, the universe, or whoever else is
running the show, 
but to rich people
.
GASP! What?
A careful reflection yields a humbling truth: Every single thing in your life
was once invented and created by someone, or by someone executing on a
corporate initiative. Yes, every comfort, convenience, and functionality you
now enjoy was once someone’s idea. Someone’s work, dream, or passion. And
now you benefit from that output. Just examine my snapshotted Starbucks
moment, a mere blip in time:
My old laptop, which still surprisingly works

Bill Gates and a boatload of
millionaires at Microsoft
My writing platform, Scrivener

Keith Burkholder
My research at Google

Sergey Brin, Larry Page, and another crew of rich
people
My iPhone, which keeps me organized and scheduled

Steve Jobs and a
slew of other rich people
My Facebook newsfeed

Mark 
Z
uckerberg and a lot of other rich people
My yummy coffee and comfortable writing respite

Howard Schultz and
the original Starbucks founders, Jerry Baldwin, 
Z
ev Siegl, and Gordon Bowker
The electricity powering the coffee grinders, the lights, and the heat
providing comfort

Thomas Edison, George Westinghouse, Nikola Tesla (although he
died poor)
My progressive glasses allowing me to see the great things surrounding
me

Benjamin Franklin, followed by Owen Aves and Carl 
Z
eiss
My durable, comfortable jeans

Levi Strauss
My upcoming workout at Lifetime Fitness

Bahram Akradi


My fifteen-minute drive to my upcoming workout, which would have taken
two hours by foot and twenty minutes by bike

George Selden (patent), the Ford
family for making it mainstream
My ears, inspirited by the holiday music orchestrating in the background

Josh Groban
