TED Talks: Chip Conley

By Charles Martin | June 24, 2010

I love TED Talks and could probably spend two weeks watching all of them. I ran across this really good and interesting talk Chip Conley gives on deciding what “counts” and what to count and what in life is worth the focus. Boy, this is a good time for me to consider the subject. How about you?

I have read his book “Peak” and have stayed at numerous different Joie de Vivre hotels.

Check it out. And then peruse TED if you haven’t before. Really good stuff.
