Moments

I blogged at length about how much I loved Big Omaha. The speaker lineup was phenomenal: Gary Vaynerchuk, Jeffrey Kalmikoff and Jason Fried were all people I was so excited about hearing talk and they all completely delivered with relevant, interesting insight into how they got to where they were in their businesses.

One speaker that I knew very little about and that I didn’t quite understand at first, was Micah Baldwin. Micah (or Me-ha, as he is known by some) is the Chief Evangelist at Lijit Networks, a startup based in Boulder, Colorado. Micah writes regularly at his blog, Learn to Duck and he is consistently insightful and interesting. Oh, and he started #followfriday on Twitter, an extremely popular tradition in which people recommend others to follow.

Micah’s latest post on Learn to Duck talked about the concept of moments and contained the video posted below, which he got from the Social Vibe blog.

One of the things that I really love about Alli’s current work that she’s doing for her show in October is that it is aiming to capture the moments which Micah is describing and which are so beautifully illustrated in the above video.

The moments in between are oftentimes the most important parts of life. It’s not necessarily how you deal with the big events that defines who you are as a person, but more appropriately, the collection of moments along the journey from big event to big event.

It’s the moments that matter.

Thanks to Micah for reminding me and to my amazing wife for all the moments we’ve had and all those yet to come.
