As you will learn, I am a big fan of Dan Pink, an American author of several business related and personal development type books such as A Whole New Mind, Drive, and Johnny Bunko (in manga).
In Drive, Dan Pink suggests the following exercise:
Think of your life as a sentence. What's your sentence?
That is, when you die, how would you like your life to be summarized in just one sentence?
To see Dan's presentation of this idea, along with another, equally important question, see this great video clip.

Welcome to LILTDY blogging.
Each of you needs to go to Blogger and create your own blog for this course. Call your blog anything you like, but be sure to include your name in the title so we know who you are. Also, be sure to send to me (krenochs@gmail.com) the url so I can post the links to your blogs and we can read and respond to each others blogs.
Each week you will have one assigned writing task related to our text, Leading at the Edge. These entries should be between 150 and 300 words.
But you can also make additional entries, and/or add links to anything that you find interesting and related to our class.
I’ll try to make my blog a good model of what is possible. To help you feel like we are all doing this together, I will do the same assignments as you.
I look forward to blogging with you.
Ken
