“Producing creative work over time requires the pain of discipline but that's preferable over the pain of regret.” 

“What if we could fill our lives with productive work that actually made a difference?” is the challenge that world traveler and author, Chris Guillebeau issues in this talk.

Chris declares that doing creative work is a way of life and lays out the requirements for feeling fulfilled. Enjoy his talk for our Portland chapter and do something that truly matters.
