About this blog
Change, when it comes, cracks everything open.
-Dorothy Allison

Henry David Thoreau said, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." He was talking about the search for change, and the sad truth that most people have simply given up on the possibility. Gandhi said, "You must be the change you wish to see in the world."

I believe that everyday, people settle for dead-end jobs, lower lifestyles, less money, and destructive relationships, all because it's easier to ignore changes that could transform their circumstances and change their future.

The fact is, change is hard. It's difficult to do well, and it's even harder to develop a lifestyle of change. That's why I've dedicated my life to helping people, organizations, and corporations understand the power of change.

Change is here, and change is happening whether we like it or not.

Andy Warhol said, "They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself." This isn't small, because I'm talking about making changes in your life that will help you discover your destiny.

This blog is about that kind of change - especially at the intersection of media, faith, and culture. The rules are being transformed, and if we're going to create media that matters, we need to understand the revolution. What fuels your passion? Producing projects that make an impact? Movies, TV, and digital media that matter? Whatever it is, this is the place to discuss it.
