Welcome

This is my personal & professional blog.  It's a place for me to think out loud and learn. I'll sometimes talk about things I don't understand as a way to begin to understand them. I'll often be wrong, short sighted, and unclear. When you see this happening, please point it out!

In Life, STUFF HAPPENS!

In Life, STUFF HAPPENS.  An incredible number of people preclude some awesome possibilities simply by not believing.  Smart people.  Confident, smart people.

In life, STUFF HAPPENS!  You get the brilliant, hot girl.  You get into Princeton.  He asks you to marry him.  Your kids turn out beautiful and a little more self-aware and arrogant than you can remember yourself at that age.  That idea you had about underwear that makes your butt look good IS BRILLIANT.  If you ran with it, you could get rich and be on CNBC whenever you want.  Whenever you want.

Not everything pans out.  But that's ok; it's not suppose to!  You're suppose to kill it sometimes and get fucked others.

Everyone you admire believed.  Everyone you admire believed.  So should you.  Start now god damn it.

Indeed, the ability to react and adapt to the STUFF that happens to you along the way could very well be the biggest single success barometer available.
