• If you can't figure out how to make your outputs "thrilling" to your "clients", you are at risk (Tom Peters)

• as your career becomes Performance Art, are you performing all the time? are you never "off"? are you Always On? Do you ever have any real SlAck/LeeWay? Even if your "work" is fun, how much Human Voice can you find time for? How much fun sloppiness?
