  • My Final Chapter of beremedy

    It’s not often that you get to wake up each day to work on a vision that could truly change the world.
    Building beremedy has been just that. Over the past 5 years I’ve seen the very best of humanity. I’ve experienced complete strangers race to help thousands of people they’ve never met in all kind […]

  • Ashton Kutcher – Build a Life

    Ashton Kutcher rocked his acceptance speech. He used it to reveal his real name and three pieces of advice for his success at the Teen Choice Awards. You have to listen over the teens screaming but it’s worth it.

    “Everything around us that we call life, was made up by people who are no smarter than […]

  • Change Our Thinking to Change the World

    I believe the nonprofit world has to improve. Dan Pallotta thinks “the way we think about charity is dead wrong”. This is one of the leading conversations I believe could finally move philanthropy forward rapidly. It’s a 19 minute TED Talk but I’d love to know what you think about this. Here’s just a couple quotes to entice […]

  • The Reason

    The heart behind beremedy’s next step has nothing to do with technology or our organization. Its about helping MORE people. It’s about people being helped immediately and it being easier for people to help their “neighbor.” I’ve looked into the eyes of the person in need and seen how greatly a remedy affects their lives.

  • What’s Next

    People love to know what’s next.
    Next is exciting.

    The question is full of good intention.
    Intention of challenging you to move forward.
    Challenging you to ship and create.
    Challenging you to not be stagnant.
    Challenging you to new opportunity, new people, new ways to push your limits.

    This is good…
    If “next” […]

  • The Few

    Often we look at leaders and successful people and we want to be them.
    All we see is them on top.
    And they make it look easy.
    So we’ll copy them and what they do in hopes that we’ll be successful too.
    But we don’t even have a clue what it took for them to get where they are.

    There […]

  • Pitch 1 or 2?

    There are two scenarios.
    1. You’re telling someone about your idea to inspire and get them to join your movement.
    2. You’re pitching someone because you want more of their time & a meeting with them.

    Here are some wise words by Seth Godin about scenario #2.

     

    Often, we’re so passionate we try to make everyone believe in our […]

  • Reading List

    I find that I am constantly reading articles.   I love it because they are relevant and written minutes before publishing.  However, when writing a book, there is a ton of diligence and each word is carefully crafted. Theories have been tested and ideas have been proven and have outcomes. Therefore, it’s time to pick […]
