Love Cowen's quote and the overall sentiment, Paul. Never knock enthusiasm. It costs nothing to give someone a small lift. And btw - I think what you are doing is cool, keep going. For real. You're a big inspiration for many people like me shifting to the unconventional path.

Great article! I have preteen kids that I am raising and also ones I am teaching. This is a timely post for me as I am studying up on effective ways of cheerleading and coaching them to explore and pursue their aptitudes. One is the captain of an online "racing team" and is trying to motivate his players... I really appreciate your appreciation of supporters. We can't all be "makers". But we can all shine when we contribute to their success.
