Sometimes it is great and needed to take a chance. That was just such a time for me Sunday. I went to pyramid brew pub. While having a beer I thought that I would take a chance and talk to a regular that I have seen a few times before. I am glad that I did. It was a great and interesting conversation. So take a chance and you never know what might happen.

Past Readings
Barack Obama: The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream
Jared Diamond: Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed
Another good book. Right along the lines for Gun, Germs, and Steel.Bruce Greenwald: Competition Demystified: A Radically Simplified Approach to Business Strategy
Very good book. Though, highly academic. I felt like I really just took a course from Greenwald.James Surowiecki: The Wisdom of Crowds
Great book. Interesting to really think about. Over at AskSpace.com and TBE we are testing some of the concepts in the book. Check it.Malcolm Gladwell: The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference
With my science background I found The Tipping Point an interesting read. In the past, the tipping point of events has always been an unconscious thought. I hope to bring those tipping points to my consciousness and harness and anticipate tipping points in the future.Keith Ferrazzi: Never Eat Alone : And Other Secrets to Success, One Relationship at a Time
Good advice and maybe a different approach to networking for many. I enjoyed the personal stories used as examples throughout the book. I am going to see if I can put his advice to practice.Jimmy Buffett: A Salty Piece of Land
A new one for all the Buffett fans. It is escapism at its best. This novel is peppered with Buffett's life and music. While reading ASPL I was wishing that I was exploring the world.Sun-Tzu: The Art of War (Penguin Classics)
What can I say. A book of sayings from Sun-Tzu. His knowledge is relevant beyond war. As good as it is to read it in English, I wish that I could read and understand the orignal Chinese text.Stephan Schiffman: Cold Calling Techniques: (That Really Work!) (Cold Calling Techniques)
Interesting read. Not that I currently make cold calls, but I found the techniques useful in regular phone and business interactions. The book made me think about how to approach a sale (both as the sales person and consumer).Guy Kawasaki: The Art Of The Start: The Time-Tested, Battle-Hardened Guide For Anyone Starting Anything
A must read by anybody that wants to start a business. I enjoyed the examples of what "to-do" and "not-do." I will be re-reading this book and continuing to make notes.
