I was amazed to read about this story about The Homeless World Cup: a largely private solution to a problem most people pose as the sole responsibility of governments to "solve".

“People have romantic notions about television. In the highest realms they think it’s some sort of art medium, and it’s not. Others think it’s an entertainment medium, it’s not that either. It’s an advertising medium.

We hear it all the time:

FIND MEANING IN YOUR LIFE.

It’s become the advice du jour. The magical solution to our woes. The on-call prescription for disappointment with life. The hope we hold onto, when our own has abandoned us.

In a sense, the search for meaning has become a religion of its own.

There is a lot of evil in the world. People breed hate instead of respect constantly. We don’t take care of what we have, and I am guilty of that as much as anyone.

But I know when I’m not pulling my weight.

No, but it's on life support...
Dictionary.com defines chivalry as: the qualities idealized by knighthood, such as bravery, courtesy, honor and gallantry towards women.

How is this different from the business world?

OK, not all business deals with women, but have you ever thought how much more productive companies would be if they treated everyone with respect?

Dear NBC/Today Show intern,

Thanks for helping to give Gen Y a bad name — now on national television (skip to 4:30, then approximately 10:45).

Sincerely,

Angela Stefano

Many in the work/life movement talk about how, in the end, it is the totality of your life’s accomplishments that matter. And while work is certainly part of that it is often not the most important part.

Up until this point in our lives, many of us have followed a very similar path toward where we are today – we work our way through school and work hard along the way – we do everything we can to graduate high school with an impressive GPA and plenty of extracurriculars. Why? To get into a great college, of course.

I heard today that Justin Bieber has been nominated for the BET Award for best new artist. Now the fact that he is not Black does not bother me in the least. In fact, I completely agree with Justin when he says:

If you are treated at a Catholic hospital, be warned: you are subject to decisions made by your doctor that follow Catholic beliefs. Namely, those about abortion.

A woman in Arizona almost died due to heart failure from complications with her pregnancy. As noted in USA Today:

The rise of the knowledge economy and knowledge worker over the last decade has brought about a new philosophy related to corporate productivity.

That philosophy sounds a little bit like this…

“Hire the best and the brightest, give them the resources and support they need, and get out of their way.”

It seems redundant that I would need to write a blog post about this. After all people have been talking about running a human business for years. But as more and more people from my office are getting involved in social media, it seems that they completely forget everything about being human and act like complete weirdos on Facebook and Twitter.

Last week, a friend sent me a link to 12-year-old Adora Svitak’s TEDTalk. And I was thoroughly impressed. In fact, the talk seemed much more eloquent, poignant and focused than many of the talks by the older generation speakers. The world, she says, needs to believe in the possibilities of Utopian ideals as kids do.

Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you’ll know tomorrow. -Agent K, Men In Black

Walking through the mall over the weekend I ran into a conspicuous print advertisement of a soon to be brand new Show coming to TV this summer. The print ad naturally snatched my eyes from the walk way ahead as it showcased shinny skinned, 25 year old girls, in short catholic school mini skirts, swagged out (like hips pointed in all types of directions swagger).

I take most of my life advice from stand up comedians. Seriously.

Patton Oswalt is brilliant and if you haven't seen any of his stand up, shame on you. Youtube that shit right now. Anyway - he has this brilliant take on birthdays and that, for the most part, after a certain age, you're too old to be having one.
