A book & also a film about Richard Proenneke, who lived alone for many winters in a remote Alaskan area accessible only by plane. He built a cabin, made his own tools, had a garden, kept journals about it all. Fantastic real story!

I saw One Man's Wilderness on PBS & got the book from my Mom. Excellent & enthralling!

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
