Today, someone asked me, most likely jokingly, the cheesiest question I have heard since my grade school days, "What is your definition of love?"

And without really thinking, I said in all seriousness:

"Love is the most profound irony in this world - it is irrational but life would be meaningless without it"

And everyone that heard me say that fell silent and I would presume felt awkward. They had the "What the f***" look on their faces.

This is one of the hazards of working late...

Last June 8, 2007, I wrote:

On doctrine and opportunity

"A clash of doctrines is not a disaster -- it is an opportunity" - A.N. Whitehead

"Therefore, challenging doctrine is creating opportunity" - Mike Calma

It is based on this that I have discovered my real role in the company: an Entrepreneurial Agitator - Someone who starts trouble to create value! A catalyst of creative conflict!

Perhaps I should rename my blog now that I about to graduate from MBA... Let me think it over... DONE!

Also, I Googled the phrase "Entrepreneurial Agitator" (which I have been playing with my head since about a month ago when I was pigging-out during the Christmas break - good food does help in producing insights) and no matches were found. I guess its safe to assume that coined the phrase! :)
