The best way to stop a child from crying is to distract them, occupying their mind with new stimuli. The best way to get attention is to do something outlandishly unexpected. The quickest path to wealth is to have an ingenious idea that becomes virally popular. When the U.S. joined in World War II, the entire country came together in support of winning the war. Time and again, the solution to major issues, or a seemingly insurmountable problem has been a novel concept (new idea), or a Cause greater than the sum of its parts, or ideally both. I’m sure you can think of many more examples, even stronger than these. The point is that we see only as we focus, but that focal power can be enough to change the world, given a Cause plus new ideas.

You can also DM me on Twitter and I will absolutely respond.
Today I am as frustrated as a writer-entrepreneur can possibly be! Yes, I know that my story is familiar to hundreds of thousands of web-preneurs and bloggers, and yet it is different because it is mine! Because of all the data overload, empty hype, schemes and scams, and otherwise lousy products and information on the web, we’ve all ‘heard it before’ and therefore I am but one more lone voice in the wilderness.
The Taming of the Shrewd
Oct 8
But we all know that the internet is gravely dangerous in so many ways. It is the modern day equivalent of the wild west of old. Yes, the digital age has brought us so many luxuries and conveniences, but it has also ushered in new venues for the decomposers of the world to operate, make huge money, and victimize people. There are millions of brilliant, cunning, clever, viscously shrewd “sharks” in the vast ocean of the digital ethers.
