Last night my wife and I celebrated not our wedding anniversary but the date we first met, which we also like to commemorate.

I surprised her by renting out an entire restaurant, and the chef and server catered only to us for the whole night.

Yes, there was a wine pairing, and with eight courses that's a decent amount of wine. And ol' Woods here doesn't have the tolerance level he did as a younger man.

However, the point of the story is this:

I like to do things differently.

(And, preferably, better.)

Announce on Facebook that you got a new job and you'll get 200 likes.

Announce on Facebook that you just started a business, and you'll get two likes.

Not everyone needs to run his own business. But you see my point: following the standard path is what people expect of you.

For crying out loud, with the technology available to us today, are we sure that making a living exactly the same way people did in 1957 is the path that's going to get us work that's fulfilling and that pays us what we're really worth?
