If you had traveled back in time and shown someone these technologies, they would probably burn you at the...

Hey everyone, If you're new here, welcome to Never Enough, where I brain dump interesting stuff that has been on my mind over the last week. Never tell, always storytell. A few weeks ago, I invited 80 exceptional people to Victoria for my second annual Interesting People conference. This year, we focused on storytelling. We had Matt Dicks, who has won The Moth an absurd number of times and has the ability to make even the most innocuous story bring tears to any audience’s eyes. Storytelling...
