This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in a few days, thanks Internet!  😉

Why do people say they fail?

Resources: Time, money, technology, contacts, experience, management

Resourcefulness: Creativity, determination, love, caring, curiosity, passion, resolve

What am I going to focus on? 

Focus = feeling; past/present/future; self or others?

What does it mean? 

Is it the end or the beginning?  Are you being punished or rewarded?

What are you going to to? 

Are you going to give up or move forward?

Certainty, uncertainty, feeling special, connection/love, needs of the spirit, grow, contribute beyond ourselves

Trigger Street Productions presents Jameson First Shot starring Kevin Spacey – Winner for USA – ‘The Ventriloquist’, written and directed by Benjamin Leavitt.

You know you find a good video when it is 11pm and you’re half asleep and within the first minute you are hooked.  You aren’t hooked because it is a “viral video” but because you realize what they are explaining in the video makes some sense and is done with true passion.  I can listen to people explain new concepts to me with passion all day long.  The second video is my favorite if you don’t have time to watch both.

People don’t have passion like this any more.  People don’t get excited for new things like we did.  Maybe we aren’t dreaming big enough.  Don’t stop dreaming.  Love this.

There are a few potential challenges with his chosen way of life for me and likely many others, but several times in the video I couldn’t help but say “huh”.  The “huh” sound is what I do, and I’ve found many others do when something we have traditionally thought true is challenged.  As crazy as his way of life may seem to many of us, it may not be so crazy.

The most oddly entertaining commercial I’ve seen for some time.

A speech given by David Foster Wallace at the 2005 Kenyon College commencement ceremony. I could listen/read David Foster Wallace all day.

Don’t talk to me, I haven’t had my coffee yet!
