Not together
February 23, 2012
I had discussed the predator / prey paradigm with Geoff* years ago.
He now asked “I’ve been trying to make collaboration and predator / prey work together and haven’t been successful. CAN they work together?”
I smiled. Like trying to drive a high-performance Lamborghini in 4-wheel-drive-low, the two are not designed to work together. Different purposes, opposite directions.

Makes you act
February 21, 2012
Fear makes you act from the past.
Love makes you act in the present.
Hope makes you act for the future.
Reinvention
February 20, 2012
It’s a time of reinvention for industry. A remarkable time of potential being brought into play.
One’s place
February 17, 2012
When I talk about ‘knowing one’s place in life’, I’m not referring in any way to society’s take on one’s place in life. Bogus spin.
I’m referring to one’s place in the universe, within the infinity of timelessness, inside the web of life.
Mankind
February 17, 2012
Mankind has great curiosity in exploring the ancient past.
Even greater curiosity in exploring the future.
And utter fear in the present.
What you repetitively think about, you become. Utter fear. How’s that working for you?
Accomplishing
February 16, 2012
In a world of spectators, value those actually accomplishing something. May they multiply.
Bent away
February 15, 2012
Mick* is persistent, because he knows value when he sees it.
Problem is, he still doesn’t offer any value, merely harm.
One of those guys who uses the term “he” when speaking positively, and consistently uses the term “she” when giving a negative example (even one reasonably applicable only to men); he begrudgingly praises stellar women, yet falls all over himself to fawn at the feet of mediocre men he wants favor and/or attention from.
Mick was back, asking to work together.
No thanks Mick. Your attention and mind are bent away from where I’m at AND where I’m going. You haven’t figured it out. You’re hostile territory to a partnership. Ciao.

Tell if afraid
February 15, 2012
Once of the simplest ways to tell when someone’s afraid is when they forget to say a contextual Thank You.
Attach / Attract
February 13, 2012
What we are attached to we attract.
What we attach to we attract.
Powerful.
Do it
February 13, 2012
Don’t over think it. Paralysis of analysis helps no one.
Do it right. Don’t worry about perfect. There’s a difference.
