go see as I don't have energy will do later....
I am thankful to say that in 2010 I was in Kaufman's SUNY NYC Fast Trac Bootcamp for Entrepreneurs and it was a great program however funding was hard for startups as it is now. I did receive special support (non-monetary) after the program. I had conflicts with an aspect that I don't believe in. I had too much poverty going on also.
I introduced myself to Sramana Mitra who runs the 1m1m program and then her to Fastrac.
I certainly wish that they would integrate as the real comes from the 1m1m (one million by one million) program. 1m1m here
I introduce her to you as someone more real and realistic that Obama and his HOPE.
Good listing for Sramana Mitra
As for me yes, I'll try one of my ventures in this startup...
Sometimes there is great value in space between and after and before....
I had this charity program Design Your Life for Harlem, it had received funding, however I had only one point person. That person left the program. So I never was able to recoup and start because I had a second hand smoke case. Sensai Koho gave me her backing. She gave her authority and promised supplies. I think now yes I have to go visit before I leave for California. I want the same backing from her, an original Californian, born in San Jose. Time is so of the essence.
I was walking down the street in Manhattan one day just like I have done for over 35 years, no distance to far or great. I am listening. I thought you know, one fatal, universal flaw in this program. I made it for Harlem; I made it for one race. I want to make it for the midwest, Texas, California. I want to make it for all races.
I visited Watts area and Tenderloin when I was deposited down there in San Fran for winning a marketing award. I walked there, alone, treasured what was, how can I help, what can I write, is it money, is it meditation.
Meditation. Remember them everyday for what they can be, a productive unit. In 2009 San Fran was lucky to have an LA police detective interested in the Tenderloin. He had some great ideas.
Ah but just like the rides bareback on semi wild horses on Long Island's coast with my work friends after work, time, obligations. Because you do great work you get greater responsibilities, more is asked of you and your soul's work is depleted. I hope that when I find the right place and spot in San Fran that I can bring my program there. I think yes you can design your life outside of the numerous ghettos in New York. It is the true test.
I mention this because I think that this is a good project to startup. I was thinking in terms of you software and infotech retail startups I have. Make money, make money. Why can't a startup make soul?
Sitting on a trend...
