and so here I am: still standing in the arena, in hand-to-hand combat with demons mostly of my own making, aiming to make a small dent in the universe. nowhere near a great success story, yet fighting the good fight and perhaps helping others to achieve greatness as I attempt a bit of my own. I’ll be 46 in a month, well past the age when most folks have already shown what they’re made of. but I’m still grasping for that brass ring.

The guy you see here got kicked out of university and started a business in Spain at 17 with limited resources. 

Innovation, creativity, failure, hard work and waiting for your moment — all this and more is found in this exclusive video featuring Pau García-Milá.

“What makes a person brave—or deluded—enough to think he or she can change the world? We’ll show you in new video episodes debuting every Tuesday on Co.Exist that follow the men and women at the Colorado social entrepreneurship incubator as they tackle the biggest challenges of their lives.”

Great video on FastCo featuring these young entrepreneurs.

Who’s behind this Tumblr?  Here’s a look inside our world… video of our recent wobi.com launch party which took place at the Yotel in NYC.  At the party we had dedicated rooms for each WOBI focus area — Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Sustainability, Innovation (natch) and more.  Watch and see.

The New Rules Of Innovation: Bottom-Up Solutions To Top-Down Problems - “The world is currently standing “on the cusp of a post-industrial revolution.”…Vaitheeswaran, a 20-year veteran correspondent for The Economist and adviser to the World Economic Forum, wrote the book, he says, as a way to inspire bottom-up solutions to top-down problems like resource depletion, climate change, and growing income inequality. We spoke with Vaitheeswaran about the importance of disruptive technologies, social entrepreneurship, and embracing China’s rise.”
