Dan Pink Rides Again!
And Invites Us to Talk on New Years Day! http://bit.ly/5EBovB
To me, he is a little bit like the Lone Ranger, or Wyatt Earp, a brave, dashing adventurous soul who will make the new frontier safer for the rest of us. He rides alone but he shows up in our town just in the nick of time, and though we’re already on the border of the unknown, somehow, we feel better, more secure, because of his interpretations, his work on our behalf. He did it with Free Agent Nation (I’ll never forget him using Erin Brockovitch as an icon at a talk), he did it with Whole New Mind, which popularized the Right Brain just in the nick of time, and now…(procrastinators can cheer up on this one) with Drive, Pink invites us inside his latest deep exploration into motivation. I feel the pounds rolling off, the book chapters getting written, the closets being cleaned! And in Big Moo, new era-esque virality (Dave Balter did you coin that one?) he INVITES US to an intimate 500 person conversation at 2 p.m. on New Years Day. All we have to do is pre-order the book and send him the receipt. Hey! It motivated me!!!!
I used free web hosting to think that Garrison Keillor was a guy I had worked with on the St web design services. Paul Pioneer Press. Then Keillor came to a luncheon at the L.A. Times wireless internet providers. I clapped him on the back. “Boy, have you come a long way dedicated servers.” He looked around, and it wasn’t the same person at all. If that wasn’t embarrassing.
