I’ve said for years that “morning Dale” hates “night-time Dale” because morning Dale wants to get up early and pray, read, exercise, etc. But night-time Dale is too self-absorbed and selfish to care very much what morning Dale wants. Geesh!
This video is very interesting in helping us think about something very similar, but on a much grander scale. Very worth watching.
Cheers,
Night-time Dale
Thanks to TED for another great TED Talk.

Who wants to take this challenge with me? I have to figure out what my “something” will be. Watch the video below (3 minutes and 28 seconds) and start thinking what you’ll take on for 30 days.

This is a really inspiring presentation by Cameron Herold on raising children to become entrepreneurs. That is, he encourages parents to shepherd their children (at least the ones who show certain aptitudes and attitudes) to not just want to become doctors, lawyers, teachers, etc., but, instead, seek to pour into them an entrepreneurial spirit. He offers some good reasons on why he believes this is a good idea and some helpful suggestions for how to put his ideas into action. I think much of what he has to say is right on target. A great deal of what he has to say is in line with trying to cultivate children who will excercise their gifts and personal quirks for Christ and his Kingdom (though this is not a Christian presentation). This is also not a homeschool presentation, however, I see the homeschool setting as the ideal environment to put Herold’s ideas into action.
This really is a great video and is truly worth watching for the 22 minutes that it lasts.
Enjoy,
Dale

This is a fantastic presentation on leadership. It’s about 18 minutes long, but if you have the time to watch it, by all means do so. I should probably say that if you can’t “find the time” you ought to make the time. It’s that good… and very interesting.
Thanks to the folks at Freedom Personal Development Blog and TED.
