In his early teens, Jim Griffiths ran away from home and quit school. The original plan was to get a job and do his best to stay out of jail. Distracted by associating with people that knew how to win, Jim found himself in a position to quit what America defines as "working" at a fairly young age. He had no family money, he didn't break any laws, and he didn't win anything. Jim studied what people consider the "traits of an entrepreneur" and he adopted their habits. "Don't Tell Me I Can't Do It!" is Jim's message about how the act of entrepreneurism is about business, yet the entrepreneur is a person. If you focus on building the person first, you will build a stronger enterprise.
