Happy Holidays – Christmas 2014

Cinnamon scented pine cones roasting by an open fire. Cookie nipping at his presents. Yuletide carols being song by Spotify. And all of us escaping from Chicago to the somewhat warmer mountains of North Carolina.

This year was interesting in so many ways. A new company in a new industry that spun off from a parent, was funded by a strong consortium and is now set to close on a substantial acquisition. Good times with many new and long time friends. Getting back to the gym for a steady three months (and then stopping for the last month …) Being named to Crain’s Chicago Tech 50 list and meeting dozens of tech entrepreneurs. And of course spending quality time with my family and friends around the world.

Everybody knows a turkey, and some mistletoe, helps to make the season right, but it’s life connections and new experiences, such as those shared with you, that made 2014 bright. So, click here for my special greeting for you.

Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Adam

It’s not about us. It’s about them.

I’ve said this so many times it’s getting old, but some people just don’t seem to listen—and maybe, if I’m honest, I don’t always take my own advice either.

The Quiet Strength of Supporting Others

If you’re already a dedicated “Giver” who uplifts others, a heartfelt thank you for your contributions to the circle of support. For those who frequently receive such kindness, pause and ponder: Are you also extending a helping hand to others? Remember, even the smallest gestures of encouragement or acknowledgment can have a profound impact on someone’s life. Whether it’s a simple share, a kind message, or a valuable connection, each act of giving back holds immense significance.
