Project 03

Project 03 isn’t about any trek towards the fortune 500. It isn’t about fame and it isn’t about fortune so much as it’s about freedom of choice and to not whither away behind a desk as the world runs by. It’s about the simple things: A breath of fresh aire A chance to work out [...]

This past week was somewhere between the most frustrating and the most rewarding week I’ve had in awhile. I don’t think I’ve answered that many emails since 2006 – my year at the old agency. But as the running theme of Project 03 holds true, the first time you do something it is custom, the [...]

I had the best day in a long, long time when it came to the case studies for Project 03. Case study #1 phase one should be running this time tomorrow and case study #2 is underway. A beautiful three hour session with a couple inspired, motivated ladies who are looking to do good things [...]

I keep thinking back to the last weekend while I was considering my good friends and their spectrum of emotions. One was bringing a new life into the world. One is on the verge of possibly entering a fight for their life. Others are getting hit with the unforeseen while others are just working their [...]

The biggest downside of trying to become conscious of being conscious is that it seems as though the emotional and situational triggers hit harder when you’re just reacting through your day. After I got through the end of the yesterday, I sat back and reflected while reading Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson. I was so [...]

Today was my worst day in my attempts to remain conscious of being conscious. It started slow – making up for the late night working working on future case studies. It rolled along slowly until I got an email as I was walking out the door from the case study who was furious at the [...]

I’m sitting in the lobby of Project 03′s first case study. It’s 9:30 pm. The uber high ceilings of those beautiful rustic downtown structure is brilliantly lit with a blend of direct and indirect rack lighting. The cars of the main drag keep scurrying to my left as the sign of the corporate bank across [...]

I’m good at being patient because I’m so horrible at it that I have to think, consciously think about it and like a rushing wind the days go by. I’m hoping the days go by right now. There isn’t a part of my life right now that isn’t being re-built from the ground up, again. [...]

It’s about 1:30am somewhere between Sunday Night & Monday morning. Me and the Wolf are putting the internet equivalent of a wrecking ball through the last of Project 02 as we take the pieces and fit them into Project 03 where available. There’s a part of me that’s sad about collecting up the pieces. The [...]

Components of a Blog

in Blogging

While working on Project 03, one of the questions we had to address was to ask what made a blog a blog. At first the question sounds simple. Spout off, “It’s like WordPress,” or “Drupal,“ or – God help me, “Blogger.” If you say The Social Network, in the beginning, Zuckerberg is liveblogging with vintage [...]

A buddy of mine, Duke Long, is putting together events called the Commercial Real Estate Disruption Events. He doesn’t dance around the benefits of the program: Free. Interactive. Innovation. Learning Sharing and Collaboration. Hackathon Start up Geek Fest. Networking and Face to Face. Oh yea and BOOZE! Duke did a call out for speakers. As [...]
