You had me at the Saffo quote, but bowled me over (wrong sports metaphor!) with the unraveling of the story! Nice pics

What a great story to illustrate your point. You started by erasing SMART goals and I thought you were going to give us a new acronym. How about LEGAL instead of SMART. Lofty End Goals Approached Lightly. : ) Just an idea. But it's ok if you don't like it. I shoot a lot of ideas and my conversion rate is way below 50%. Loved that you have an actual photo of you next to SC.

Hahaha. You were definitely there, I see. I like your parents' attitude. Work hard pays off in due time.

All the nostalgia of being a suburban kid clinging to a dream playing small college ball came rolling back 😎 Great perspective

Sometimes you just gotta build up a sufficient head of steam. Have something in mind and go after it and don't worry about results. The only thing futile is futility. Doors can open up this way when you establish your own Ways & Means committee.

Loved the quotes, loved the article.
