  A comment on Talk: Brené Brown: Listening to shame

  Mar 19 2012: Her observation that the TED conference is a showcase of failures is just brilliant. No one there is afraid to try... afraid to fail. That's where the magic happens. Love Brene!

  A reply on Talk: Derek Sivers: How to start a movement

  Mar 15 2012: First follower makes that lone nut a leader. Love that. Have to treat those first followers as equals, teach them the moves and let them recruit while you go on dancing!!! Love it.

  A comment on Conversation: What's your excuse for not pursuing your passion?

  Mar 13 2012: Fear. Fear of not knowing where to start. Fear of not being able to succeed. Fear of failing and not learning. Fear of being too late. Fear of being too early. Yep, fear.
