Today’s Lagniappe (a little something extra) – Here is a TED talk from ‘Joie de Vivre’ founder Chip Conley on ‘Measuring what makes life worthwhile?’. Interesting take on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Intangibles count. How do you put a price or value on the little extras?
HELP me catch another 469 purple goldfish for a great cause.
