My name is Andy Yang and I am contacting you on behalf of Sigma Eta Pi, UC Berkeley’s first entrepreneurship fraternity. Our mission is to bring ambitious entrepreneurial undergraduates together, connect them with resources and people, and help them launch or be in the process to launch their first start-up during their academic career at Berkeley. We are going to hold a large scale, campus-wide event on Nov 17th to educate and motivate would-be entrepreneurs on how to initialize their startups. I am emailing you to gauge your interest in speaking at this event in the interest of promoting entrepreneurship to the next generation of great leaders. If this is an opportunity that interests you or if you have any questions, please let me know!

Best,

Great to see that you have taken to blogging. Nice refresh to your site as well.

Cheers.

For now, here’s the next few:
12. The longer you stay with a complicated problem, the better you’ll get at solving it. Don’t give up when it doesn’t come to you easily, the big problems are the ones you need to dig in to and stay with.
13. If you can’t draw very well, just use the letter “L” for a nose when you draw a face.
14. Lemons really can turn into lemonade – but you have to squeeze them and get messy and roll up your sleeves to make it.
15. Understand your own emotions.
16. If you’re ever leading people, whether it’s on the playground or later in life, think about what they need first, and what you need second.
17. Be the first to share. When a new kid comes to the park, be the first one to say hi and to share your toys. It makes you feel good when you can make someone else feel good.
18. Get as much joy from other’s successes as you do your own.
19. If you like something, treat it with respect. Put your toys away, take good care of your basketball, make your bed and fold your clothes.
20. You can learn something from everyone you meet, no matter how old or how young they are.
21. The harder the climb, the better the view when you get to the top.

I am quite surprised that Karma.com is just sitting on a relatively empty page. Are you the one squatting on it? If so, Karma.com is a great name that would pick up a ton of buzz in tech/blogosphere.
