“Creative Fundraising Ideas That Worked: The 777 Project” – My Talk At The Collaborative 2019 Conference by Classy.org

June 24, 2019 By Joel Runyon Leave a Comment

impossible-speaker-classy19

Last week, I was in Boston for 36 hours to speak at The Collaborative - a conference for non-profits put on by Classy.org. This was a talk a little different than I normally do - but I spoke about a little "crazy fundraising ideas that worked" - the 777 project - the things we did right and some of the things that we could do a lot better (don't completely mess up your peroneal tendon and do 6 months or rehab in the middle of your fundraiser is one ...

How You Do Anything is How You Do Everything

May 21, 2019 By Joel Runyon 2 Comments

You are what you do. Every time you act, you create a habit - even if it’s a small one. “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then is not an act but a habit.” - Aristotle Everything you do is practice for who you are becoming. You are not the product of your dreams, your desires, your potential or what you could be someday, somehow, in the perfectly right environment. You are what you do. You are the culmination of your ...

September 21, 2018 By Joel Runyon Leave a Comment

kiva-impossible-org

You’ve probably heard me talk about IMPOSSIBLE.org - the philanthropic arm of IMPOSSIBLE. You’ve most likely heard me talk about Pencils of Promise and the 777 Project - where I ran 7 ultra marathons on 7 continents to build 7 schools with Pencils of Promise. IMPOSSIBLE.org is not an official non-profit entity / 501c3, but it is a channel we use to raise funds and awareness to give directly to causes that we care about. To date, we’ve raised over ...

July 31, 2017 By Joel Runyon 13 Comments

Blogging has changed my life. It's taken me from living in my parents basement, to running triathlons, to growing an online business, running ultra marathons, starting another business, building multiple apps, and traveling around the world.

Why I’m Starting StartABlog.tv

November 22, 2016 By Joel Runyon 1 Comment

I want to introduce you to a new website I'm launching through Impossible X - the parent company that runs all of our projects here at IMPOSSIBLE. It's called StartABlog.tv and it's the best place to learn to set up a blog. So why am I doing this? Well, I get asked quite a bit about how to start a blog. I've built IMPOSSIBLE from something I was writing in my parents basement to a full-time business that I run from anywhere in the world. I ...

Inside StrikeThru – The Analog System Tripling My Productivity

July 7, 2016 By Joel Runyon 26 Comments

For the past few weeks, I've been more creative than ever. I've written more blog posts, more emails and made forward progress on more things in the last 6 weeks than I have in the last 6 months. Part of that has been due to the lack of legal fiascos I've had to deal with (more on that later), as well as some traveling I've been doing, but most of it is due to a new habit I've picked up for helping me control my thought processes and get stuff ...

Muhammad Ali on the Impossible

June 3, 2016 By Joel Runyon Leave a Comment

ali-impossible-quote

“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given, than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ...
