The weather is crisp, the leaves are turning colors, and there’s mud and opinions being flung everywhere — the telltale signs of fall in an election year. I must be getting older and more jaded, because I hate election season with a passion. Ironically, I worked in the political arena for three years while I lived […]
Change your mind.
I’ve just stumbled across THNKR, a YouTube channel of an amazing collection of videos by @radicalmedia whose sole purpose is to expose you to people, stories, places and thinking that will change your mind.

It’s important to love what you’re doing.
Sir Richard Branson has always been a man with a vision, and in this short video interview for the GREAT Britain campaign he lists, among other things, why it’s important to love what you’re doing.
