Today's image: you can play with it... by Pensiero. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

Closed circuit to CEOs: One of the next superstars, a person you need to hire to help save your company, is now unemployed (still looking), crowding fifty and probably female. You'll find irrefutable proof of this bold assertion via a YouTube video available using this link. Thank me later.

P.S. The next time you are told "there's no one out there" - your response should be "I just don't believe that's true."

Bonus tip: Take "there's no one out there" for what it is - an excuse. As a practical matter, this line serves as a wake-up call, a critical early warning sign that important, serious work is not getting proper attention.

You did watch the video, right? Trust me, it's an inspiration. Please, do watch it by clicking here.
