I hope you’ve enjoyed reading Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us by Daniel Pink and gained some great ideas, now it’s time to share them. Assignment #1 Discuss Drive. We’ve been reading the book for a few weeks. Now, I’d like us to spend some time answering the discussion questions at the end of […]
After some crazy weeks (and I do hope you’re still doing some of the things from the past week–I fought a cold this week, so I was slightly derailed from some of the fitness stuff, but I’m getting back on track now), I think you’ll really enjoy the next two weeks. I think they both […]
I hope you all had a great week. It’s been pretty mellow for me as I fought a cold, but I’m starting to feel healthier, and I’m not starting to return to the land of the living. With the holiday this week, I imagine a lot of you missed the blogs. I hope you have […]
Several months ago, I wrote a Mumford & Sons blog entry. It was after a pretty tough fall. Today, I write another–not to emo out or to complain, but rather to show that we all go through tough times, and there is a part AFTER the storms. If you’re a regular reader, you might already […]
So I’ve been taking care of my girlfriend’s cat for the past month since my girlfriend moved to San Diego for a new job. Although my sleep has been dramatically reduced (the cat is a big fan of the morning wakeup), it has been nice having a pet around during my slower season. I’m definitely […]
So it’s week four. I hope things are still going well for you. I’m sorry that there isn’t a video preview for this week. I had a wonderful weekend, celebrating my friends’ wedding, but came home to quickly get a pretty bad cold, and I don’t think you’d want to watch that. It’s made my […]
I hope you’ve enjoyed Part One & Part Two in Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us by Daniel Pink. I’m glad I spent time rereading it and getting ideas I missed the first time. This week is a good catch-up week for those that started later and a good reinforcement week for those that […]
Now that you have your contact book all set up and you’re getting more familiar with Evernote it’s time to branch out just slightly. While we’re not necessarily focusing on a new technology this week, we are laying out some more of the groundwork to get to some of the other tasks in the upcoming […]
Okay, so you should still be drinking water, turning off those electronics, working out, and focusing on gratitude. Now we get to this week. It’ll probably be your least favorite week out of the whole bunch, but it is totally necessary and will help you focus on other (more important) things down the road. The […]
I’m sitting in the San Francisco International Airport right now awaiting my flight to my friend’s wedding. It should be a great weekend. Due to the wedding and the 4th of July holiday, I’ll be a little later in posting the Week 4 Summer School updates, but they will be out on Tuesday, June 5th. […]
