“The fault dear Brutus lies not in our stars but ourselves.” Usually, technology itself isn’t the issue. A fearless and searching inventory of your organizational culture is essential to charting your future.

I live in New England, on the brink of the icy, salty Atlantic. The Boston Globe does a great job chronicling events near and far, but their Big Picture is a great window to the mages that define our world. New photo-essays posted three times a week. Take ten minutes, tune out, and tune in. (Sorry, hometown bias. Could have suggested news about the Red Sox or the Patriots.)

Finally I grew up on the East End of Long Island in New York. Its farm country, and going there always provides me great peace. Here’s a picture from there. I hope that it does the same for you.
