Every Tuesday I come up with an idea to make a difference for someone in a small, personal, creative way, then I send out that idea as a mission assignment to everyone in our group. Over the next week, we all spend 10 minutes to accomplish it in our own way for people in our own lives.
❤️💣 Mission: Reconnect With An Old Friend
Reconnect With An Old Friend
The Background
This month I'm pivoting my career a little bit, going from a boring old marketing director to a freelance creator again - something I've really missed in my life. This time, instead of building new things on the social web, I'm becoming an AI developer, with a specialty in new forms of storytelling with all the new tools and possibilities open to us.
I'm also re-opening my personal email list, which has been dormant for 8 years. It's going to be mostly work stuff - AI ideas and projects and the like - but I'm sure I'll do a personal post every once in a while. You can check out what I'm up to here: Storytelling in the Age of AI, and then if you want to get on my personal email list, you can sign up for the newsletter at the bottom of that post, or you can click the button right here. See some of you soon!

The Mission
Take a moment this week to reconnect with an old friend. Send a text, make a phone call, grab coffee. Just take some time to reconnect with someone who helped you get where you are today.
Let's take a step back, and keep old relationships growing too in the middle of new and exciting life moments. Let me know who you reconnected with if you feel like it!

Love Bomb

Morning, friends! I was doing the Love Bomb thing during the latter half of 2023, and then I took a break for the Christmas holiday but never came back. I ended up having to deal with a few issues at once (and still am, actually): loss of a job, some personal health stuff, some family things, etc. I'm still in a place where I need to take care of myself and focus on bigger things, so I'm going to do that. Love Bomb will be on indefinite hiatus for the time being. I appreciate you all being a...
Today (Monday night as I write this) is Christmas Day, and next week around this time is New Year's Day, so I'm taking the time off from love bombs. After that it'll be the end of the holiday season, and into the teeth of the long, cold winter. God willing we'll all see it through to the other side together :) It's been another weird year for me, full of stops and starts and big personal/career changes and more than a little stress. The kinds of things most people go through every five years...
From the Beginning The Background I just got back from taking a walk with my brother during a break in my work. It was a nice piece of downtime during this very busy month where I'm transitioning myself into a new (much more fun and creative) career as an AI developer. It made me realize that he's been there through all of my twists and turns, ups and downs, and personal growth over the years, and I'm thankful for him. The Mission This week, spend 10 minutes to acknowledge someone who was...
