    With 100% of their profits going to fund scientific research, Bradford and Bryan Manning design, source, produce and sell ultra-comfortable designer clothing to cure blindness. To succeed you must define and pursue your own success. A deceptively simple fact, too often it eludes us as we chase successes not our own. This series highlights stories and wisdom that inspire us to see success more clearly. Bradford and Bryan Manning are two brothers who share both blindness and a vision for a cure. Their thriving new company, "Two Blind Brothers," manufactures ultra-soft designer clothing from natural fibers, for the sole purpose of funding blindness research. 100% of their profits are donated to the effort. Feel good, look good, do good--all at the same time. That's their model, and it has been wildly successful. I caught up with Brad and Bryan for ewop-009, and we talked about their thriving venture, their vision of success, and life as blind entrepreneurs.
