Busy with my own world domination

July 9, 2012 in Book Review, Connecting, Raves, Reads with 4 Comments

This weekend I kept seeing friends post from Chris Guillebeau’s World Domination Summit here in Portland. While I felt a bit regretful for not going I had to remind myself that I really did not have the time or space right now. I am busy executing my own world changing plans as well as making new ones.  I really enjoyed seeing some of the biggest change agents today that I personally know tell their stories. What excites me the most is hearing some for probably the first time decide to step out of their comfort zones and make their own world changing plans.

So here is a shout out to good friends already out there and an even bigger one to the friends just showing up on the scene. Go make it happen. Find someone who will disrupt you daily and keep you on track. I have only come this far because of friends like that.

And if you have not read Guillebeau’s The Art of Non-Conformity, I highly recommend it. It made me mad the first time I read it, mainly because it exposed dreams I did not feel were possible. I am now doing those exact things.

Here is C.C. Chapman’s Flickr Slideshow I have been enjoying as the weekend rolled by.

    Sorry we could not connect while I was in town, but like you said we’ve all got SO much going on and it just means I have to come back to Portland (a town that I love) sometime soon and if not I’ll be here next July for the next WDS for sure. Bought my ticket last night.

      Sounds great! An d maybe we will find the time to hang out earlier. I’ll have to add next year to my calendar.
