An early morning run in my neighborhood. Seeing the sun rise with the Knoxville landscape in the distance reminded me how blessed I am to have found this city and this stage of my life.

I am currently reading the Power of Moments

Be willing to take on things/opportunities where success isn't guaranteed. A mentor at my first job out of grad school said this to me as I was considering leaving the company. I had two job offers and her words convinced me to pursue the one that had the greatest personal risk and career upside. It served as a foundation and spring board from my career.

Other than invest in that crazy thing called Apple I would say enjoy the journey/don't miss the litttle moments that really matter. I was in a rush to get to college and thriough college to start earning money. And that "I do matter".
