What’s your superpower? What do you do better than anyone else?
What are your top values – your operating principles?
What do people frequently compliment you on or praise you for?
What is it that your manager, colleagues, friends, and clients come to you for?
What adjectives do people consistently use to describe you – perhaps when they’re introducing you to others?
How do you do what you do? What makes the way you achieve results interesting or unique?
What energizes or ignites you? What are your true passions?
In this week's episode of How To Make It In America, Ben and Cal are offered a chance to make a prototype of their denim line, Crisp. The only disadvantage was that they would have to give up $1500 to do so. Their superpowers were their hustles characteristics. Cal was more of a hustler than Ben and resorted to selling the skateboards that he hand in his apartment. The boards represented a skateboarder who could have been the best boarder in NY but went crazy and ruined his chance of stardom. After trying to persuade other skateboarders that these boards were must-haves, Cal failed. He ended up selling the boards to private school kids after telling them the truth about the skateboarder who went crazy. He ended up coming up with the $1500. Before Ben knew this, he was going to ask his father for the money, but he choked and ended up not doing so. He decided to use his rent money as a sacrifice and revealed this to Cal. Ben and Cal were probably known around town as cool people, being that they had a good group of friends. They were probably looked at as hustlers in their own ways, very ambitious and slightly unrealistic. But they had heart. Their friends probably come to them to assist each other in a hangout spot or to go on a weird business venture. The way they achieved results was by going after them and taking the opportunities that were offered. They would suddenly be invited to parties and this was networking opportunities for them. When they were offered to make a prototype of their Crisp jeans, it was sudden and unexpected, but they took the challenge and got the money for it. With this sort of attitude they may make it in the denim industry.
