@adpead I had a boerie braai at 6am. Way to start a Saturday. Fortunately it was indoors!

I love this illustration.

@jon_bossenger @devconf It was great meeting you and thanks for the kind feedback re @devconfza. Thanks for connecting!

[Johan Olivier @SharePointRoots]

@MaOberlehner I had the privilege of spending time with @MaOberlehner this week. He is a genuinely humble & open-minded person who I truly respect. Remember if your talk is robust & impactful there will be those who love it & others who hate it. Pleasing everyone results in a mediocre talk.

[Johan Olivier @SharePointRoots]

Goodbeye Pretoria! You were amazing. @devconfza

[Johan Olivier @SharePointRoots]

I am overwhelmed. This was so special. Thanks @devconfza Thanks audience. You guys are amazing!

[DevConf @devconfza]

It takes huge courage to ask for help and to talk about your story. @SharePointRoots is giving #DevConf attendees some insight into both in Emerald now!

After a conference, we feel energized and can't wait to dive into new tech, but as soon as we get back to deadlines and become “busy”, the enthusiasm wears off. How do you keep the conference spark alive? At @Devconf I’ll share with you a principle that works very well for me.

[Johan Olivier @SharePointRoots]

Lions don't attack a herd of buffalo. They wait for the weak to get isolated from the herd before they pounce. When things get tough, are you surrounded by trustworthy, caring people who protect you, or are you alone and vulnerable? Let's chat next week at @devconfza!!

[DevConf @devconfza]
