			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://blog.flecksoflife.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/entrepreneurship1.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-739" title="entrepreneurship" src="http://blog.flecksoflife.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/entrepreneurship1.png" alt="" width="491" height="328" /></a></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve had a fascination with technology since 9th grade and when I got my first computer, a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Instruments_TI-99/4A">TI99-4A</a>, a whole new world had opened up for me. I remember writing programs in TI Basic and then sneaking into our local community college and using punch cards to program as well. Man, was that cool! We&#8217;ve come a long way baby!</p>
<p>Enterepreneurship and Business has been a part of my life as well. My professional life has spanned Sales, Marketing, Operations, Technology &amp; Management.  I&#8217;ve been on the inside as well as consulted to companies from startup to multi-billion dollar corporations.  It is joyous when people from all walks of life build lasting value for people by delivering products and services that make a difference. The individual power to create is awesome.</p>
<p>As for the Life part? I promise it won&#8217;t be the modern day equivalent of making you watch slideshows from my vacations or opening presents on Christmas, or when I decided to walk my dogs around the block.</p>
<p>So with that being said I&#8217;ve decided to blog about Life, Entrepreneurship, Tech, &amp; Biz besides politics. The main reason for doing this is balance in my life, both online and off.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll confess, I&#8217;m doing this for selfish reasons as well. I&#8217;ve always been a believer in what goes around comes back a hundred fold. I&#8217;ll stop learning when I&#8217;m dead. Learning is a never ending &#8220;joy-ney&#8221; for me. So I&#8217;m expecting to get awesomeness back from you.</p>
