And this applies to both your personal and professional life.  Whether Mom should soap my mouth or not, I’m saying

People love need cool shit.  Build it and they will come.

btw Mom. Happy Mother’s Day :) Call later.

Make a simple web application that reduces routine busywork by 5 minutes, they will come. (and pay)

Create a meet up based on issues that matter most to you, they will come. (and offer new ideas)

Build a BBQ on a sunny weekend afternoon, they will most definitely come! (and you’ll probably make new friends)

People love need cool shit.

Join me for some weekend grub?

And as long as you can passionately demonstrate that what you have to offer is cool, then people will listen.  Why? Because people are attracted to passion and excitement.  People want to be in those shoes.  People want to be part of that type of crowd.

Remember the “why” of doing things.  Why should I do this? Are you doing something because you’re being told to or because your inner gut is pushing you?

The warm weather is finally arriving in Amsterdam.  Time to throw down some stella barbecues!

**and for my non baseball friends. The video clip comes from the movie Field of Dreams, a baseball classic and warm felt story worth watching.  Especially you Martin, who is heading to the States and going to see a Boston Red Sox game!
