a thought to begin 2007

Uncategorized 4 January 2007 | View Comments

for me, a year of change, of growth, of excitement, of learning, and most of all, of dreaming up the year to come.

my guiding thought to enter 2007, by (fellow jew) steve jobs at stanford’s 2005 commencement address:

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

I didn’t get here by shutting up. I got here by making as much noise as was appropriate, and then a little bit more.

bring it on.
