All the texts I’ve recently published in The Slow Burn have been born from a desire to share and inspire. I emphasize this because I recognize that it wasn’t always like this. In the past, when I called myself a publicist and entrepreneur, my writing was often driven by a need to build my personal […]
There is hardly a worse monopoly than that of truth. Those who assume it or those who make it their own become walls of obstruction, blockage and stagnation. They usually do not visualize the cause, do not notice the flaw and ignore [...]
For those who believe in the invisible, the impossible is possible. And for an advertiser like me, a message like the one below can be forgiven the logo. I imagine it is possible to reinvent Costa Rica and raise it to the [...]
“From Why to How to What.” I was going through the resources in Prezi, when I came across a presentation with Simon Sinek and his 2009 Ted Talk. In today’s day and age it’s like from prehistoric times, and yet with ideas [...]

I couldn’t imagine ever doing a short commercial for a Microsoft product, and yet, after exploring Bing for a while I find their new search engine to be a good option to the all-powerful Google of the Internet. It will have to [...]
In case you missed it, here is the video that reminds us how a story can always remain current and true to its beginning. Eight years after their first wassup, this version reunites the friends and brings them up to date. Even [...]
“Playing for Change” manages to inspire the whole world in an infectious, simple and sensitive way in the midst of all the differences in sight and sound. If we all took it upon ourselves to inspire others, whether in the classroom, the [...]
I’m @joller on Twitter and I invite you to follow me. At the same time, I follow hundreds of people on Twitter, the subject of this talk at the Cannes Film Festival that you can’t miss. At the beginning, people were talking [...]
