Many
of you may know that I am a night owl who loves to work into
the wee hours of the morning. You know this since you have
caught me up when submitting your email. Some of your are
surprised at finding me up. Those of you on the other side of
the world may not be used to finding anyone awake since you are
many hours ahead of our time. But I also run into a great many
people who enjoy working while others sleep.
I am not awake merely because I suffer from insomnia. Oh no, it
is much bigger then that. I am up because I love doing what I
do.
I am not a big TV person. I watch the news in my feeble attempt
to stay current. I also enjoy Alley McBeal, NYPD Blue, Law and
Order and an occasional basketball or football game. But last
night I happened to watch Oprah, which doesn't even start until
12:30am. It turned out to be a show that I will not forget.
Oprah has a talk show with a central theme. The theme this
evening was "Follow Your Dream." She interviewed many
everyday people who had a dream and the courage to follow it through.
Most of these people were normal folks who had fulfilled their
dreams and some became very rich. Many of them were down on
their luck at the time they started their new business. These
were folks like the founder of amazon.com who in 5 years has
become one of the richest men in the world merely by selling
books over the Internet. DUH! That is the type of idea that
everyone should be muttering to themselves, "Why didn't I think
of something like that?"
