About Chris Do

I always knew I wanted to start a company. But as a natural-born creative, there was so much about the business I had to learn.

That meant trial and error, working with mentors and coaches, and learning (and failing) on the job. I went from an introvert to a confident businessman. I became CEO of not one, but two creative companies. I experienced highs and lows, wins and losses, and awards and failures over the past 25 years, and I’ve condensed every epiphany into this very book.

I want you to grab Pocket Full of Do when you need a reminder that not every roadblock is permanent. Not every failure is a signal to stop. There’s a lesson in every opportunity, and each one will take you so much further. This book is something I wish I had when I needed guidance. It’s my hope that with each anecdote, you remind yourself of what’s possible.
