Duck”Talk
“You have to sit by the river a very long time before a roast duck will fly into your mouth”
- Chinese Proverb
Find your passion
Find a teacher
I am self-employedregardless of who pays me.
The path is not always straight
Someone else’s win is not always your loss
Catch site of your reflection
Keep the beginner’s mind
Respect the centerline
Time & attention are finite
(don’t put crap in your box)
Concept: Joel Spolsky / Merlin Mann
Feed me!
Is this my monkey?
Teach others and you will learn
No knowledge is useless
Make Sandwiches
