QOTD – 13-Sep-06

I learned from it (Conversation with Joseph Schumpeter) three things: First, one has to ask oneself what one wants to be remembered for. Second, that should change. It should change both with one’s own maturity and with changes in the world. Finally, one thing worth being remembered for is the difference one makes in the lives of people.

I like Dennis Howlett’s set-up. His blog drives his business; the latter he runs online from his home in a small Spainish town. Where a good meal, washed down with plenty of wine costs about $20.

Hmmmm…sounds like my kind of setup!
