Steve Sims on how he built a career creating impossible experiences — from dinner at the Vatican to submarine tours of the Titanic. His secret: asking directly for what you want, because most people never do.
Canon
•
Sims describes his progression: he started by approaching strangers at networking events, then cold-calling executives, then pitching impossible experiences to gatekeepers. Each level of courage built on the previous one.
Highlights
•
