Dilbert’s Ultimate House
Can we somehow get every home builder to read this before building another home? Honestly, let’s put a more little thought into building energy efficient and resident friendly homes. Yes this is about Dilbert the cartoon, but there was an amazing amount of effort put into this house design.

Latest Book Review
Linchpin: Are You Indispensable? by Seth Godin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars This book is about being an artist. Whether you're a painter or an accountant you can bring unique talents to the job and become indispensable, a linchpin. I've been reading Seth's daily blog for a long time, but I'm embarrassed to say this was my first time reading one of his books. It was eye opening. This reviewer summed it up nicely: "Too many people accept a day's pay for a day's work. They clock in, do their work like automatons, and clock out. Most businesses never tap the creativity or passion that people have, and most people believe that stuff belongs at home, or in the gym, the lodge, the classroom or the garage, rather than in the cubicle. The truly indispensable people are ones who bring all that passion and energy to work, and deliver incredible experiences for their partners, customers and compatriots. I think many people are unsatisfied at work because they aren't willing to tap into their real energy and passion, and don't believe that that work would be rewarded and valued. In a time when everything can be outsourced, only commitment, passion, creativity and engagement will be differentiators." --http://innovateonpurpose.blogspot.com/2010/01/book-review-linchpin.html View all my reviews >>
