Comment on It’s never too late to start planning by Alvin

In his book, Zen & the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, author Robert Pirsig cites a warning from a set of instructions, “Assembly of Japanese bicycle require great peace of mind…”

I offer you that same warning. If you’re all ADD, I submit that an ADD-inspired business plan will not cure your ills. GO FIRST AND CALM YOUR MIND. Think of diving in a place where you’ve stirred up all the bottom silt and now the visibility sucks. Let the waters still, let the silt precipitate out and get some clarity before you go and charge off.

Figure out what’s making you yippy and dithering, and go address it. I wish you the best of luck.

Hey Tess!

Great to hear from you. Glad to hear that the move to San Fran went OK. I did go to the launch in April and it was awesome – everything I expected.

If you’re coming to the east coast anytime, look me up!

Hi Christina,

I was thinking about you when the shuttle went up. So you went back to KSC to see the launch How was it?!?!

We missed it because we just moved to San Francisco on the same day! Very sad watching it go up and not being there to see it though. Hoping to get to the next one but I don’t think we’ll make it.

Glad things are going well for you!

Keep in touch

WOW! High-Speed-Range-Life! How fast do you think it can go….? Sounds incredible. I have to admit, my freelance life feels much the same as you describe it. Good luck managing the madness.

Comment on The “f” word by Eric

The United States’ culture of “no fear of failure” is one of the things that keeps the US competitive with the rest of the world that is ever advancing technologically and educationally. The stepping stones of small, supported risks/failures have created many of the biggest technological and business innovations. CEOs are expected to have one or more entrepreneurial failures before they’re really taken seriously.
Alas, trying to explain it to an 8-year-old is not the easiest job in the world. Hopefully, Griffin’s failure to understand now results in some later great technological innovation!
