Greece was the ultimate bubble, and most of society was content with that — the promise of stress-free living was impossible to pass up. Over the years, I witnessed the powers-that-be strip away all mechanisms of entrepreneurship, risk and innovation in favor of the alternatives: a bloated public sector and a guaranteed employment structure. [...]
If I can take away one thing from my experience here and ingrain it into Greek society, it would be to move toward uncertainty, embrace the challenges ahead and find the joy in solving the problems of the present day. We need to drop the cynicism, forget the past indiscretions of our leaders (we are all guilty to some degree or another) and band together, roll up our sleeves and get to work.
The web is a force of nature unlike anything we have ever seen, and we need to recognize that tapping into this force requires trial and error. It is part of the game, and entrepreneurs play the game well.

A woman's shoulders are the front lines of her mystique, and her neck, if she's alive, has all the mystery of a border town. A no-man's land in that battle between the mind and the body.

So I guess this is where I tell you what I learned - my conclusion, right? Well, my conclusion is:
Hate is baggage. Life's too short to be pissed off all the time. It's just not worth it.

There is nothing wrong with your television. Do not attempt to adjust the picture.
We are now controlling the transmission. We control the horizontal and the vertical. We can deluge you with a thousand channels or expand one single image to crystal clarity and beyond. We can shape your vision to anything our imagination can conceive. For the next hour we will control all that you see and hear.
You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the deepest inner mind to the outer limits. Http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2I7vPbthvWo

[Social media companies such as Facebook and LinkedIn] are being valued as if they will be our permanent means for identifying ourselves. Yet social media is itself as temporary as any social gathering, nightclub or party. It's the people that matter, not the venue.

Κατανοούμε ότι οι απόψεις μας είναι αιρετικές και ασύμβατες με την απόπειρα που κάνουν οι αναχρονιστές να μας υποχρεώσουν να ορκιστούμε στο "μελαγχολώ άρα υπάρχω".
Μοναδικό μας αντικαταθλιπτικό ο αγώνας για αξίωση της εργασίας μας.
Ευελπιστούμε για πρώτη φορά και τολμάμε να προβλέψουμε ότι το τέλος της κρίσης θα μας βρει νικητές.

Building a new technology company is really, really hard.
In order to do it successfully, you have to sweat the details, worry about all the things that might go wrong, and suffer more than a few sleepless nights (either from working through the night or just worrying through the night).
All of those things that you go through—a boiling stomach, lack of sleep, waves of paranoia, and vivid visions of your own demise—turn out to be good things.

For what it's worth: it's never too late to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it.
I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.
