and eating sushi from the market..so good. except I am getting food all over my lap-top they should make lap-top bibs for sloppy eaty typers like me.

two thoughts today;

- if email hadn't ever been invented we would have gotten to the social software internet mcuh faster except creative techie people were blindsided checking stupid boring email all the time.. I count myself among these people, I am trying to figure out how to reduce my innate emotional connection to receiving emails. Except I was just reading about how the key to my success is networking so I should probably be trying to get like billions of emails a day from people like sophia loren. It's confusing, to me email is all about never getting anything done, but I think to other people it is *how* they get things done.

- I just finished reading an article in FASTCOMPANY ( what am I doing reading this magazine... ) about serial entrepreneurs, I like this line;

What he looks for in employees are methodical, single-minded types who will serve as a counterweight to his tendencies. "One guy throwing out 12 times more ideas than you need is enough, and that's me," he says.

I think I might be a serial entrepreneur without any capital, or perhaps in training. I have endless lsits of "projects" I want to start and then I end up getting a number of other ideas, and then I end up enrolling in business school (jury is still out about that one)

I can't wait to actually start something, and I like this idea of knowing when to get out. Apparently this is another hallmark of the serial entrepreneur. Liking the start-up part and not liking the maturity phase.

Sounds like me in a nutshell - I think it might end up making me crazy though, what will happen to all my hobbies like; blogging and ummm.... blogging and oh dear. I should probably just start a company.
