I believe in sacrifice. For the last year I've put everything into the completion of what I now think of as my triptych:
* Martin's Ride To Cure Cancer (bicycle ride across America Summer of 2010).
* StoryofCancerStore.org - shop to cure cancer http://www.curecancerstore.org
* CureCancerStarter.org - corwdfunding cancer research (http://www.curecancerstarter.org) should launch on Monday 10.14 if the creeks don't rise.
We celebrated last week with an amazing Google+ Hangout on Air and then an invisible hand tried to strangle me last night. The post explains how life should never be taken for granted and tiny things (like flu shots) can create BIG impacts.
The lesson no to hidden in the story of how an asthma attack almost killed me is don't let your life become so out of balance that such a dramatic reminder is required.
I believe in the sacrifice too, but sacrificing yourself for the dream your building is moot and a bit goofystupid (says the man who almost died last night from letting his life get out of balance :).
So do as I SAY not as I DO :).
