TED Talk Tuesday: Raise Kids to be Entrepreneurs

Take 20 minutes and listen to this talk from Cameron Herold. If you ever hear that voice in the back of your head becoming you to jump out of the rat race and brave the business world as an entrepreneur you owe it to yourself to see this.

Cameron ends his talk with the short video below.  It has long been one of my favorite.  Even if you don't have 20 minutes to spend take TWO and watch the video below. 

T(h)ink on.

Design is everything (to me): Part 1

The Early Years: As I reflected on the moments that brought me to my sentence, it became evident that I've already lived a lifetime influenced by design.
