What’s Your Dream?

I love the ride I’m on. I love what I’m learning, I love the success of it, I love the people I’m doing it with, I love the feeling or being a part of building something significant… Except for when its boring. Or I lose. Or the people I’m doing it with just don’t quite “get it”, or there are what seems to be insurmountable roadblocks.

Outsourcing – Think outside the box

Apple snubs Flash, Pushes HTML5 – An interesting play.

Steve Jobs is on record saying that “the world is going to HTML5″.

Why do you think that is? I’d suggest that it’s because those who have asked for the changes either own, plan to own, or are targeting their content towards Apple Mobile users.

Here’s the thing… I would describe myself as someone who is continually pregnant with the plans and dreams and hopes I know God Himself has planted in me, and will bring to pass. The problem is, there is the ever-present mundane-ness of the now…

Keeping the Lights On

KLO means Keep Lights On. It’s an fairly recent term heard floating around the enterprise, it’s the process of jettisoning absolutely everything non-essential to maintain the survival of the company through extreme circumstances.

Sticking with Plan A

Quick thought… I’m the kind of person who is very quick to start working out contingency plans if a dream, goal, task or venture or mine doesn’t seem to be panning out.
When bumps in the road come, my mind spawns a whole range of Plan B’s, way that I can change tack and either recover [...]

Product Selection… Picking an Idea

NOTE: THIS, AND SOME OF MY RECENT POSTS, ARE REPRINTS FROM MY FACEBOOK NOTES. THEY WILL BE A FEW MORE OF THESE INTERSPERSED WITH NEW STUFF.
I often talk to people that are absolutely chomping at the bit to start their own business, and the number one pre-startup question I hear in conversation is this: What [...]

The Coin in the Mouth of the Fish

I am still working through the full story of what God is trying to say to me personally through this passage, but my encouragement I’ve taken from it so far is this: God’s provision is not something we need to rack our brains for, to strive and stress and struggle to find “that one good idea” that will set us up for life and provide provision for the Kingdom.
