What began as one man's quest turned into a group effort. 28 days ago, Scott Bishop made a pledge to his blog readers to post once a day for the entire month of February. At the end, he planned to post results based on a few goals he'd set out ...
Conferences, seminars and presentations, take heed; your time is limited. Broadcast isn't the future, collaboration has taken over.
Collaboration breeds learning. Collaboration breeds solutions. Broadcasting transfers knowledge, which is the lowest form of thinking. Collaboration goes beyond that.
It's easy to get speakers that will preach to the crowd, it's hard ...
You can't really limit an explosion. Unlike a rubber band, there's just no way to limit, without stopping, such a tremendous force.
Life is about controlled explosions. We censor ourselves. Our energy is stopped, not redirected. We are safe.
Show off what you can do. The world wants to see it.

Creativity will save the world. It already has, once. When times are tight, only creative thinking can help prosper.
Times are tight again. The same old thinking isn't going to work for us. And everyone has been broken a bit. So you have to do things differently in order to survive.

Brand has little to do with those who create it. Brand is a perception, an initial reaction to whatever piece or whole a consumer has been exposed to. Marketing, logo design (among other visible elements) and attitude our under our control.
Branding is not, but Phoenix would sure like you to ...
Phoenix is dead to me. It's been years, nay decades, since metro Phoenix started its transformation into a real city. Dip in economy after dip in economy has prompted business leaders to fashion new marketing plans in order to attract new customers. Cheap land? Done. Lots of roads ...
We know you want to be heard. It's tough to stand out. You have to be really loud, really good or really controversial. Some people, the rarest of us, are all three.
We are not. We have to work to spread our message. We have to target, we have to impress ...
You're not what you could be.
You're not what you should be.
You're timid.
You're insecure.
You're going to figure it out.
You're going to give gifts to others.
You are the change you want to see in everyone.
You are not afraid.
Ha, just kidding. Go laugh at someone. It's fun.

It's time for many people to shut up. It's time for them to start thinking on their own. It's time for them to stop piggybacking.
As great as the iPhone (iPad) SDK and developing games for Facebook are, far too many talented developers/programmers are using that as a crutch to make ...
Motivational books are mostly ridiculous, as is nearly anything written by a self-proclaimed life coach ((Escape From Cubicle Nation, by Pam Slim, is a worthy exception)).
But why would anyone capable of doing great work need inspiration from a book solely designed to do so? Don't great artists get inspired by ...
