The following is part 3 of my 8 part series on entrepreneurs and their attempts at work-life balance.
Jeremy Wright and I have a history. I first met him through his website when he was fired for having a
For those of you new to me and my site I’ve created an Articles section. I’ll be maintaining this page with my best articles. Be sure to check it out… I was surprised with how much I’ve written in the last 4 months.
The following is part 2 of my 8 part series on entrepreneurs and their attempts at work-life balance. Previously. I introduced the entrepreneurs.
Steve is a brilliant individual who graduated college in three semesters with two degrees. He took his computer programming skills and started a software development company. Starting a company is certainly impressive but what
Cheney speech spurs new Cold War
A speech by Vice President Dick Cheney strongly critical of the Kremlin marks the start of a new Cold War that could drive Moscow away from its new-found Western allies, the Russian press said on Friday.

The following is part 1 of my 8 part series on entrepreneurs and their attempts at work-life balance. I want to thank the following individuals for willingly sharing their experiences (either with me or their website): Chris Pearson, Steve Pavlina, Jeremy Wright, Angie Chang, and Shivani Sopory.

Unsurprisingly the results came out of Boulder. Yay for Earth, though, right? If it would just quit with those damned ozone-damaging volcanos.

I’ve learned that the easiest and most effective way to define hese positive attributes is to look to others for feedback.
In order to collect the data necessary I sent an email to 20 people. I introduced the concept behind what I was doing and then asked for the following from each person:
Please provide me with three examples of how I add value by completing the following statements…

Two things about the site: first, I went ahead and purchased (first time, ever) a webhost. So far I highly recommend Dreamhost. Second, I did the lamest ‘Reboot’ in the history of CSS Reboot.
