One of the added benefits of doing all these videos is that I sometimes review what I’ve said in the past.
I just came across this video about what SageRock means to me. I made it in April of 2008.
I’ve recently been disheartened by the Natural Selection core that exists in 21st century American business. There isn’t a lot of room for idealism. And honestly, I’ve recently questioned if anyone even wants idealism.
I often think of Thoreau’s quiet desperation:
“The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation.”
Unfortunately, I think most people resign themselves to lives they would rather not live.
This video reminded me of an idealism that has been faint within me in the last several months.
It reminded me of a greater pursuit than I’ve had recently.
It also reminded me that the “mass of men” is not all men. There are a few that have dreams they are actively pursuing.
The Sage of April 13, 2008 is making the Sage of May 28, 2009 think.
