Waltzing In Constant Pursuit of Opportunity

Opportunities birth opportunities that birth opportunities.

If we can get this, we would want to smile a lot more, shake a lot more hands, and connect a lot deeper and quicker in our newly formed relationships.

Key word here is want. When you’re aware of the serendipitous nature of opportunity it makes you aware of the possibility it holds and makes you want to see it come to fruition and partake in its fruit.

The waltz of business is to a song called connect the dots and you’ll find that each dot leads to a bigger, better, and more meaningful dot than the one you’re at now.

Defining Need.

Business school did a great job of pounding into our heads that we were to leave, go find a need, and find a way to fulfill it.

The challenge now is in wrapping our hands around the ever-evolving definition of need.

We’re finding that the further we travel up Maslow’s pyramid the more difficult it is to put our thumb on and fulfill these needs.

Could it be that the postmodern entrepreneur’s role and responsibility is to build lodging at the top of pyramid for his customers and co-workers?

I think so.

Experience, connection, and meaning has to be the aroma, sound, feeling, and taste of whatever we build from here on out.

If you look around, that’s where we’re as hungry as we we’ve ever been.

You can start with anything…

an email,

a call,

a note,

a meeting,

an idea,

a service,

or a product.

But if it doesn’t end with trust then why even start in the first place?

Trust is the cohesive hope of our connections, communications, and commerce…She’s also the repeat button we push for our favorite music and artists.

Dwell well today, friends.

Faces and Spaces

Where’s the so-called middle man? The promoter, the publisher, and the “retailer”. Hard to find him, isn’t it?

Our network economy has become the middle man itself. The web is now the middle, the market, and the space where the magic happens.

Think about it. In a way your book sits right next to Stephen King’s book on Amazon’s shelf, your album is in the same iTunes jukebox with U2, and your ideas are one click away from Einstein’s. This was not the case in 1995.

This entry is for our awareness in the commercial shift from places to spaces.

We must realize the economy of the world is not headed towards more physical places, but rather ONE space we can interact, produce, create, communicate, and share in.

You and your ideas don’t need a storefront, they just need to connect with the right people and ideas in the space we call the web.
