Musings at Altitude

I spent 3 hours with a university class last night, talking about passion, entrepreneurialism, respect for owners, corporate bureaucracy, and so many other topics of surprising importance to them.

Over the years…

I’ve forgotten how young most college students look.

I’ve forgotten what it looks like in a college classroom.

I’ve forgotten what it’s like to have folks raise their hands before asking their questions.

I’ve forgotten what it’s like to have people call me “Mister”.

I’ve forgotten what it’s like to be bombarded with questions on each and every issue I discussed.

I’ve forgotten how awesome it can feel to see people so actively interested in what I’m saying!

I haven’t forgotten how fun it is to learn.

I haven’t forgotten how passionate entrepreneurs can be.

I haven’t forgotten how incredibly exciting it is to be at the beginning of a brand new journey.

I haven’t forgotten how scarey it can be to address a room full of people you don’t know!

I had a great time.

It’s motivating, stimulating, intensely fascinating to be challenged by young minds that are unihibited in their questions.

I need to do it again soon!
