An interesting documentary about Australia's Sir Reginald ANSETT .... and his development of ANSETT AIRLINES OF AUSTRALIA .... from sewing machine mechanic .... to local interstate land transport/taxi service provider during the 1930's .... and to basic pre-WW2 aviation exploits .... then airline archetect/magnate and to multi-million dollar corporate/major airline (and all with just basic education) ....

.... to the airlines eventual failure during 2002 years after his passing (a corporate collapse which very nearly caused the demise of AIR NEW ZEALAND too) ....

One of Sir Reg's anecdotes that's always been embedded in my own mind is his following statement ....
"You'll never accomplish much in life if you're only ever prepared to work 40 hours per week"
That's always been an "inspiration" (if not motivation) to me throughout my own 40+ year business (and other) career
