There's an awful lot of luck, as well as science, in a big hit. But rarely is there anything "quick" about it.

When I graduated college, I don’t even recall there was a commencement speech. Presumably there was. But I don’t recall a single nanosecond of it. Nothing was said to kick me into the world, all fired up and ready to change… Continue Reading →
