Great opportunities don’t always land in your lap. It takes stepping out of that bubble you call reality and seeing the real purpose, to help those in need; to serve and make an everlasting impact! Thank you for sharing your story Jade @MikeysMiracles @letsmakeamark

I attended a call today, we discussed design related items, minor upheaval about square vs. semi rounded buttons, in the end… “it’s a configuration thing” #design #development #debate

Just listened in on a great session being held at @BoozAllen and gained some really great insights I wanted to relay from one of the speakers! Thank you for sharing, I have a better understanding of continued equity. #InItTogether #findyourpurpose #yourvoice

[Nick Brock @shapeyourdesign]

Importance of education in equity;
1) educate on the equity in your area 2) research the org that is helping/providing support 3) and develop a deep rooted effort to volunteer (provide funding, share resources, spread the word, provide thought partnership)

@chriscoyier if we are being honest, for me, I only wash the silverware handles if it's needed, it was an efficiency thing I guess...

@berkun @DePaulU awesome idea, love the energy!⚡️

[Scott Berkun @berkun]

Do you use one of my books in a course you teach?

If you'd like me to make a fun short video for your class or come to a Q&A just ask at https://t.co/3uKUnFbTLh. Time permitting I love to do these.

Here's a recent one for Dr. Lisa Gundry's innovation course at @DePaulU.

If you could, how would you approach the presidents day of service (PDOS) website/page differently? Is there room for improvement? #DayOfService

Welp, it happened. Got bullied in the comments of a project I was really proud of. If you ever think of saying anything negative to an artist who is just trying to do good work, please remember there are humans behind the work with real feelings and tears.
