More From Joni Mitchell

People have stars, but they aren't the same. for travelers, the stars are guides. for other people, they're nothing but tiny lights. and for still others, for scholars, they're problems... but all those stars are silent stars. you, though, you'll have stars like nobody else... since i'll be laughing on one of them, for you it'll be as if all the stars are laughing. you'll have stars that can laugh!... and it'll be as if i had given you, instead of stars, a lot of tiny bells that know how to laugh.

I think innovation as a discipline needs to go back and get rethought and revived. there are so many models to talk about innovation, there are so many typologies of innovation, and you have to find a good innovation metric that truly captures the innovation performance of a company.
Thinking Discipline Innovation
Innovation is the specific tool of entrepreneurs, the means by which they exploit change as an opportunity for a different business or a different service. it is capable of being presented as a discipline, capable of being learned, capable of being practiced. entrepreneurs need to search purposefully for the sources of innovation, the changes and their symptoms that indicate opportunities for successful innovation. and they need to know and to apply the principles of successful innovation.

We americans commercialize everything. look at what we did to christmas. christmas is jesus' birthday. now, i don't know jesus, but from what i read he was the least materialistic person who ever walked the earth. no bling on jesus. he kept a low profile and we turned his birthday into the most commercial day of the year. in fact we have a whole jesus birthday season. and then at the end of it, we have the nerve to have an economist come on tv and say what a horrible jesus birthday season we had.
Jesus Years Nerves
The first thing i did when i was forty years old, i put handcuffs on and i jumped off alcatraz prison and swam to san francisco handcuffed. that made national publicity. then, there were three or four years where i would do more difficult feats. another birthday i towed a thousand pound boat across the golden gate. on my 65th birthday i towed 65 boats a mile and a half in tokyo. on my 70th birthday i towed 70 boats with 70 people in it with my feet and hands tied a mile and a half in long beach.... my next birthday i will be 93. i'm gonna tow my wife across the bathtub.
