Sharing the Burden

I lost my new Iphone. I was stressed out, running around the house cleaning like the comic relief in a Shakespeare play.  I left the cell on the hood of my car and 30 minutes later when I was trying to leave the house I couldn't find it. I checked pretty much everywhere except the top of my car. It was just about the worst place to leave it.  There goes $500 to buy myself a new one.  There is a GPS application you can download to help you find your phone in such a situation.  I didn't know about that service.  But even if I did, I might not have gotten around to installing it.  Just like I haven't purchased AAA Roadside Assistance, or copied and buried a key outside my house, or found a very reliable computer back up system. 

Life is so complex anymore. Who has time to crash proof their life?  And eat healthy and have fun, and make a difference? 

All the more reason we should be living in urban tribes.  Share the burden.  Let one person sign everyone up for AAA.  Let one person clean the house and the other bury the backyard key. 

I'll fork over the $500 for another cell phone.   

Mind-Blowing Networking Event

Sometimes I get angry when I see what has happened to the legal aspects of our world.  I suppose I am no different from a scientist who despairs over how little funds are currently being designated for research and development. Or, someone knowledgeable about the prison system.  Or, the Weight Loss Counselor who is tired of schools feeding children sugary lunches. 

We all have a reason to be angry and now is the time to do something about it.  It's time for us to collectively address all that is wrong with our world.  If we each pick something to focus on, our world is going to starting turning in that upward spiral "real" soon. 

It takes our actionable anger to ingite our will and get us off the proverbial couch.   I'm inviting Biznik people to bring your righteous anger and your open mind to a "Mind Blowing Networking Event" Wednesday May 27th. Location: the lovely Puget Sound Yacht Club. 

I don't want to blow the surprise.   I'll fill you in on the details closer to the time of the event. 

Come armed to make a difference.
