		<description><![CDATA[I read the book Rework, by Jason Fried &#038; David Heinemeier Hansson, recently and wanted to get a few subjects that stood out to me in a blog post before I forgot. Repetition helps you remember, so maybe I am doing this more for me than I am doing it for anyone else. But if you’re reading this, enjoy, and then go buy and read the book. It’s well worth the read and allows your mind to marvel at the freedom the digital economy has brought.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I sat down to write this post as a farewell to a company that I have grown very fond of during my time here. Clients, friends, and colleagues reading this may or may not know that this crazy ride we call life is taking me down a new path, and I will be leaving FORGE at the end of this month. I wanted to briefly explore three attributes which make FORGE such a phenomenal workplace, and thus a difficult one to leave behind.]]></description>

We agree. Which is why we decided, for the second year, to flout the tradition of basting and slow-cooking our turkey to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Scott started off by saying that most ideas never happen. Period. It seems like such a depressing statement, but it’s true. It’s a statement that rings true with me, personally, as I have a long list of ideas (good and bad) that I’ve accumulated over the years and most of them have never seen the light of day. So why is it that we rarely act on the ideas we have? It seems our creative tendencies get in the way. We (as creatives) are constantly looking for that creative “high”––that next great idea––and when we get one, we want the next. It’s an intimidating proposition to be confronted with all of the tasks that must be completed in order to execute an idea. It's easier to think of the next idea and get that high that we love than to execute the previous idea.]]></description>
