Hi everyone,<br><br>If you are an entrepreneur, and I think many on these lists are, I thought you might find these items of interest:<br><br>1. Martin Medeiros from the local law firm Swider, Medeiros, Haver LLP gave a talk on "podcasting and the law" at an "install-fest" event we held at our offices last week.

I've experienced being in this business as being fraught with struggle primarily because I look at myself as having quite a few fatal flaws. The coaching I've been doing has been extremely helpful for me in this respect. Last week I went to a CEO council, a small group featuring some real giants from the Oregon tech industry, and the topic was executive coaching. I was super surprised to realize that these pillars of the industry were in the same boat as me. It was really energizing and reassuring to see that many of the people I really identified with in this discussion had also felt the need to get help in the form of executive or business coaching. I bring this up because my coach is holding an event to introduce people to the concept. He is quite unique in that he is very, very experienced with technology, which many business coaches cannot say. If you are interested in learning more, go to this site:
