You Will Disappoint People
In your life, you’ll disappoint people. You may be wildly successful, outrageously funny, brilliant and do extraordinary things. You also will likely disappoint someone, at some time. And the more that you attempt to do, be, and discover, the higher probability...We Did it! We Raised $33,298!
Raising $29,000 for charity: water and swimming from Alcatraz wearing nothing but my birthday suit!
Let’s Make It Rain. And You’re Invited.
How far would you go for clean water? (All images in this post from Charity:Water’s 2010 Haiti trip.) Updates to the Birthday Swim Campaign! I’ve got some pretty good news. So exciting, I can barely stand it. Six weeks ago we set out to raise $29,000 for...100 Gratitudes, One Hundred Dollars, and the $29,000 Birthday Swim
We live in a world of abundance, and this is the year that I finally became worth nothing. Out of all the things that I worked through and built this year, the entire time I still had a bed to sleep in, a family close by, a job that I went to everyday and plenty of food to eat. A pool to swim in, places to run, a city to call home. When I returned from WDS this year, I was humbled, quiet, confused, and a bit sad: despite all of the engagement, inspiration, and learning, I still wonder: Am I doing things worthwhile? I’m not sure yet. Is there more to do? Absolutely. Have I reached all of my capabilities? I don’t think so. Can I do more? Yes. There’s so much more I want to do. Join me as I try to raise $29,000 for my 29th birthday — and if I do it, I promise to be a little crazy. More crazy, I mean.
