Need vs. Want
@JoeYevoli and I had a great conversation the other night, as he wraps up his month spent living with my family and me on Cape Cod. We spent a lot of time discussing what it takes to be a good person, and a lot of our theories pointed back to our youth, and how we were raised.
I consider myself extremely fortunate. I have loving parents who supported me through school, sports, activities, etc.,...
I’ve also started reading The Purple Cow. now, time to be remarkable.

Jeff Bezos: Regret Minimization Framework
I just left this comment on bijan’s blog (I’m really digging his stuff lately).
“It’s so simple. In the long run, the picture is more clear. Often times, in the midst of hectic lives and “really big decisions,” we can’t see the forest from the trees. I was at Marconi beach the other day, teaching my friend how to surf. He was all over the place, looking...

HomeField is Disruptive Tech
This quote recently came through my inbox via a fellow entrepreneur.
“Disruptive technologies do not immediately replace existing technologies because they are better. In fact, in the beginning, they are worse. They’re just simpler, cheaper, and more convenient. They appeal to the low end of the market (in this case, netbooks), which doesn’t need all the bells and whistles...
