I found this fantastic story about a guy called David Thorne. He couldn’t afford to pay an overdue bill, and approached his situation with some brilliant creativity and some stunning cheekiness.

I’ve had my fair share of financial worries (that’s like saying Lehman Brothers had a bit of a cashflow problem) and it’s a horrible place to be. That’s why I love what he did so much.

The man’s brilliant.

I love the fact that he’s clearly a bright guy and found a way to settle the matter that just might have worked because it was so out there. Another time, another place, it could have worked.

Here’s what happened next.

You’ve gotta give David credit for consistency and creativity.

Sometimes confidence is doing something that appears to be plain crazy, simply because it fits with who you are and just might make something happen.

Where could you benefit from being more creative, confident and cheeky?
