| Introduction | I doodle infographic mapping and scribble commentary on business, world affairs, literature, art, music, film, and lessons learned from the perils of the effervescent human experience. Socrates once said, "All I know is that I know nothing". Ironically, the journey one takes in life can have an uncanny way of making this apparent. My 20’s were a decade of self absorbed idealism, humanitarianism, and exponential growth. I was convinced that I had things figured out, "brick walls were merely obstacles for successful people to over come". I can't remember where that quote came from. But, to my surprise, my 30’s have become the decade of defining movements; remarkable discoveries, character building experiences, progress/set backs, and enormous lessons learned. Although, I am the typical Meyers-Briggs ENFP type, I have yet to master the intricate dance of gracefully maneuvering around those aforementioned brick walls. Thus, I've grown to embrace the importance of balance, contentment, discipline and karma. I am striving towards Samadhi (enlightenment). |
