The Art of Asking

Amanda Palmer performing with The Dresden Doll...

As a Friday treat, I want to share with you a special video.  Amanda Palmer is a self-described punk cabaret musician.  In the TED talk linked below, she shares some interesting observations on people and life as she discusses her career.  The reason I am sharing this video though is the thought provoking question she poses at the end of the video.  What if we stop asking how we can make people pay for things like music and start asking how can we allow people to help. I don't know that it is a good business model for every business, but I think it might be a great philosophy for every person.  Enjoy!

As simple as a smile

It always surprises me the powerful impact that a genuine smile has on me. Smile! It is VERY cost effective marketing!
