A moment of sappy...

I just got home from teaching an amazing group of young people how to start a business. It's a multi-week course, and I'm hoping that they get half as much out of it as I do.

A long time ago, when I decided to start MarketEASE, there was a fire in my belly and a creative drive that made me feel like I could conquer the world. These days, with the day-to-day work that always needs to be done, I sometimes lose track of the excitement and enthusiasm I once had. This is no doubt very familiar to most of you.

Tonight, those young people reminded me what hope and eagerness for the future looks like. The looks on their faces as they contemplated what could be, and excitement at what they could create just based on their vision, was like a breath of fresh air.

It was a great reminder that we shouldn't forget why we are doing what we're doing. It's easy to get so caught up in the forest that we can't appreciate the cool shading of the trees.

Is it hard work? Absolutely. At times do we wonder if it's worth it? Probably. But we all looked like those young people once. Didn't we? Or have we gone too far to remember?
