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 […]
Derek Sivers came to the Zeitgeist to propose that a movement is more about “followership” than leadership, extolling the value of the first follower. The video that illustrates this brief talk, which doesn’t look good, shows a guy who started dancing alone. [...]
So said Ted Turner at the start of Zeitgeist 2010, in an interview that began with Tom Brokaw 1 hour and 2 minutes after the first talks started, while igniting all the batteries in favor of optimism. Here is the full recording [...]
If I had learned to take notes like that… I would have about three doctorates!

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 [...]
