What is The Bold Academy? Well…

The best way I can put it is this: It’s a revolutionary 30-day program designed to help young entrepreneurs and change-makers overcome limiting beliefs and negative habits, get clarity on their greatest gifts, and learn how to share them fully with the world.

My application was selected, and along with 17 other young “superheroes-in-training”, an extraordinary staff of 8 people, and a slew of world-class mentors, I spent all of July at The Bold Manor (a pimped out fraternity house).

Every day was filled with workshops, activities, challenges and exercises designed to really help us step up our personal and professional game.

There was laughter and there were tears, there was elation and there was frustration, there was a whole lot of everything…

We kept it real. Very real.

And in the end, everyone walked out with a head full of amazing memories, a different perspective on life and a newfound (or renewed) desire to make the world a better place.

this has got to be a sex thing

Hehe hungry-angry-lonely-tired is actually pretty good advice.

would it be too obvious to post a jpg from 'the californians'

there's a distinct awesomenessfest vibe about this amazing john mcafee saga:

John McAfee is a founding father of the anti-virus software industry, an inveterate self-promoter who built an improbable web security empire on the principles of trust and reliability, then poured his start-up fortune into a series of sprawling commune-like retreats, presenting himself in the public eye as a paragon of engaged, passionate living: "Success, for me," he has said, "is being able to wake up in the morning and feel like a 12 year old." But down in Belize, McAfee the enlightened Peter Pan seems to have refashioned himself into a kind of final-reel Scarface.

mcafee is now wanted for murder.

Now, every time my anti-virus software pops up, I will be reminded not to shove MDPV up my ass.

Thankfully for me, Peter Norton is one of the most boring people in the world.
