Spielberg In My Local Pub
“If the world should blow itself up,Â
the last audible voice would be that of anÂ
expert saying it can’t be done”
 – Peter Ustinov
Â
Here’s 3 impossible things that crossed my radar in the last month alone:
 1. I live in Ashford, Co. Wicklow, a small village.  And in March, one
of the biggest movie studios internationally opened it’s doors there.
It has to be seen to be believed – the goal of it’s creator, entrepreneur
Joe O’Connell, is for the studio to become the ‘studio destination of choice
outside of LA’. Â He’s already secured a production deal for ‘Vikings’, a ‘Tudors’
type TV show.
Â
2 weeks ago Steven Spielberg was spotted in my local pub having a meal
with Joe and Daniel Day Lewis. Â Â Not logical, not possible but hey, it’s happening…
Â
2. My brother Mark deliberated for years on setting up his own company, Maven TM,
lead generation specialists for SME technology companies. Â So despite the risks he setÂ
it up just over a year ago.  In March he hired his 12th employee. Â
Congrats Mark. Â Many would have said it wasn’t logical or possible, but it’s happened…
Â
3. A client of mine had a dream to appear on a very well known TV show.Â
(I’m sworn to secrecy 🙂  Damn NDAs… )  Part of him had given up on it or pushed it to one side. Â
When he decided to go for it, it all happened easier than he expected and
in March he appeared on the show. Â Logical? Â Possible?
Â
With all the doom and gloom being peddled in the media, you’d be forgiven
for thinking people had stopped thinking BIG.
Â
Maybe it’s worth digging out those hidden dreams again and
blowing the dust off them…
