More specifically: When the former CEO of any bloated, archaic industry, one that hasn’t had to innovate or revolutionize its ways in nearly a century, warns you against doing something, that’s you’re cue: Do it. Do it now.
Sounds obvious, right? It’s not. Cynicism and the bitter daggers of doubt can be unutterably clever, cloaking themselves as sage wisdom, as insight, strewn about everywhere: in college, in church, in unhappy parents, in media, in industries of every shape and tone. But mostly, they take up residence in your very own head. They are the parasites on your creative impulse, sand in the gas tank of just shut up and do it. And they mean you ill....
It’s true. Breathless reports abound that Apple has hired a top-secret team of 300+ automotive engineers, designers, experts. They are doing some strange experiments with minivans. They are gathering facilities, machinery, know-how. They are not denying anything. Intriguing!
No one has the slightest clue what Apple might be doing in this category, so far away from their normal universe of shiny handheld fetish objects, but hey, it’s Apple. Predicting their next serious move has become something like fantasy football for geeks.
