An awesome post about a great way to manage shopping and sale emails without being tempted to buy things you don't need from Katie.
If anyone is still questioning why I adore Jimmy Carter, read this article.
Read Cory Booker's twitter feed to understand why we need more politicians like him. (Or watch "Street Fight," dude's a rockstar).
A cat puts on a bunny hat. Seriously. Just watch it.
We have a crisis of leadership in America because our overwhelming power and wealth, earned under earlier generations of leaders, made us complacent, and for too long we have been training leaders who only know how to keep the routine going. Who can answer questions, but don’t know how to ask them. Who can fulfill goals, but don’t know how to set them. Who think about how to get things done, but not whether they’re worth doing in the first place. What we have now are the greatest technocrats the world has ever seen, people who have been trained to be incredibly good at one specific thing, but who have no interest in anything beyond their area of exper tise. What we don’t have are leaders.
What we don’t have, in other words, are thinkers. People who can think for themselves. People who can formulate a new direction: for the country, for a corporation or a college, for the Army—a new way of doing things, a new way of looking at things. People, in other words, with vision.
Another awesome post from the Invisible Children blog.
