Deck of the Day: Lessons from Guy Kawasaki

If you know AllTop, Apple, or Slideshare, you know who Guy Kawasaki is. If you are hungry to get your idea financed, you better know who Guy Kawasaki is. If today, like me, you need a bit of no nonsense solid wisdom gained from years of experience to empower and motivate you, check out Empowered Presentations latest, “10 Hindsights Accumulated in the Past 35 Years”, which is a lovely visualization of Guy’s keynote address at this year’s Menlo College graduation.

As always, EP creates something beautiful, sleek, and dynamic, but what really impacted me most was the common sense practicality of Kawasaki’s message–it seems that some very important ideas–expect to fail, work hard, seek joy in life experiences not material possessions–have become diluted. It’s good to see an infusion of this via a medium like Slideshare, where the idea can truly spread!

I am off to class for the morning. Happy Wednesday!
