My motivation around that changed today when I received an e-mail from Internet guru Tellman Knudson. We all know that the Internet is a big and scary place with a lot of people willing to take advantage of peoples general naivety a
nd sense of trust but, Tellman broke that mold with his e-mail today.
Tellman is doing more than just standing up and making a difference; he is standing up, taking his shoes off and running barefoot across America to make a difference. The project is so big I won't try to go into the details here you can find those on his website (www.RunTellmanRun.com) but what I will say is that it is his goal to raise $100 million to assist homeless youth across the states.
Perhaps there is a story behind Tellman's motivation, perhaps he will share it one day, as for now his position (and the wealth that comes with it) has given him the opportunity to do, what I believe we all should do in similar positions, give back - in a big way.
I am inspired and impressed by his philanthropic, humanitarian and Herculean effort.
Run Tellman, run!
Peace, Brian.
