"That's so difficult for people who are paying mortgages, buying cars, trying to give their kids the things they had, to get them through school. You want to feel confident in the last 15 years of your career that arer 25 or 30 years of effort, it's just going to work," he says. "But it isn't so. And I don't think you ever get over the fear of not knowing.” – Doug Gould Ad Exec
- 65. Why should you care about Social Media? “In-‐forming is the individual person's analog to open-‐sourcing, outsourcing, insourcing, supply-‐chaining, and offshoring. Informing is the ability to build and supply your own personal supply chain—a supply chain of informa1on, knowledge, and entertainment. In-‐ forming is about self-‐collabora1on— becoming your own self-‐directed and self-‐ empowered researcher, editor, and selector of entertainment. – Thomas Friedman
