Guy Kawasaki is one of my favorite blog­gers. He’s one of the first Mac evan­ge­lists (and I’m a rabid con­vert), and I would con­sider him one of the world’s pop philosophers–people who sys­tem­at­i­cally reflect on pop­u­lar soci­ety, tech­nol­ogy, and the world.

What if you can go back to your past and see your­self before you made the choices that change your life? This is the premise of Richard Bach’s novel ONE. I love this part in par­tic­u­lar. Spoiler Alert: Some details will be dis­cussed, so if you want to read the novel your­self, stop here.

Three or four years ago, I wasn’t a morn­ing per­son. When I was study­ing in col­lege, I hated 730AM classes because I’d have to wake up really early and my brain doesn’t usu­ally work at those early hours.

This is some­thing we could all learn from here in the Philip­pines. We have our own ver­sions of the work done in Bogota, Colom­bia, but it would be great to have more and more cities in the Philip­pines doing this.

It starts with erad­i­cat­ing cor­rup­tion. And peo­ple doing what they are paid to do, and were elected to do. And it also includes every­one else’s coop­er­a­tion. But it is pos­si­ble. It can be done. We do not have a choice.
