I&#8217;ve spoken to several entrepreneurs this week as well as spent some time thinking about my past endeavors, and one thought keeps popping in my head: &#8220;tinker, don&#8217;t perfect.&#8221;   When I look back on some things that I&#8217;ve worked on, some of them things I REALLY was  passionate about (have some thoughts about passion, [...]]]></description>

I thought a lot about my mom today.   Julie and her friend were talking about something that happened a few years ago, and they couldn&#8217;t remember what year it occurred.  I said &#8220;well that was before my mom passed away, so it was early 2005.&#8221;  It was strange how normal that statement felt to me.  [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ve written on this speech one, two, or ten times already but for some reason it resurfaced this morning for me. I thought about it a little differently today.  Steve pleads eloquently in the speech for us to blaze a path of passion in our lives:

There was an article in the WSJ this morning about supporting loved ones when they find out they have cancer. I immediately had opinions on the article because I remember my own experience very clearly with my mom.  I remember cleaning out my college apartment when she called me to give me the news, and [...]]]></description>

I had a long talk with my sister this morning about relationships and it reminded me of something my Mom used to tell me: relationships (of all kinds) take work.  I&#8217;m amazed really at how easily people forget this (myself definitely included).  Expecting a relationship, whether between you and your significant other or your friend [...]]]></description>

(from my trip last weekend to Deep Creek Lake, MD)
So my mom would have turned 55 today.  It&#8217;s hard to believe a 3rd birthday has passed since her death.  I definitely do miss her everyday, but it&#8217;s strange how life goes on.  It is so weird to see all the cards and letters I saved [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So today I really have felt sort of down in the dumps.  I&#8217;ve had some things come up related to work that weren&#8217;t good, and part of me really just wanted to crawl under a rock and disappear.  Actually to be honest, I just wanted something to fix it all for me&#8230;That started a chain [...]]]></description>

It came and I didn&#8217;t even catch it.  I really can&#8217;t believe it&#8217;s been almost 2 years since my mom passed away.  Roughly 2 years ago today, I entered the most difficult period of my life.  The point [...]]]></description>

(via mecredis on flickr under cc)
As I was sitting eating lunch and thinking about my last post I had somewhat of a revelation.  I really don&#8217;t like work.
Looking back on my first business, Enviar, I didn&#8217;t start that as a business.  I really started that with the approach of &#8220;this puzzle looks [...]]]></description>

(shot at sunset in Guanacaste, Costa Rica&#8230;beautiful place)
It&#8217;s been awhile since I last posted to this blog.  It&#8217;s not because I&#8217;ve been particularly busy, it&#8217;s just that I fell out of that &#8220;blogging state of mind,&#8221; where you can constantly see blog worthy topics in your day to day life.
Anyway,  those of you [...]]]></description>
