It's also inspiring to hear about someone who got laid off (albeit from a job they didn't like), and turn that negative into a positive by doing something they really enjoy. Great post!

It's an older best seller (not new to hit the scene) but I am actually enjoying it very much. Bing talks about seeing things for what they are through some pretty funny metaphors about elephants. I'd recommend for a little free reading. It won't take you long to get through either. More on Buddhism:

Interesting stuff about someone who sounds like a good guy, with an interesting outlook, a batch of honed skills, and a guys who's integrity is decidedly "in". Keep these coming. It's fun and helpful to read about other designers—I wouldn't been reading about one who designs books, however—where they come from and what they do.

I've been interested in and reading about Chinese philosphy and zen, as well as freelancing recently, so this article is especially poignant to me. The idea of blending the realist, "at one with the world," mentality of zen and design is fascinating and something I'm trying to work on. Good piece.
