A Boy’s Inspiring Entrepreneurial Spirit

by Caryl Loper on April 30, 2012

Caine Monroy, a nine year old boy, literally created a cardboard arcade inspirited by his ingenuity and creative imagination.  He perfected the design and detail, down to its implementation, security system, prizes and more.  His entrepreneurial spirit is apparent in his ability to create a business opportunity, proof that age has little bearing on when you should start as a business builder.

His arcade was created while spending his summer months in his Dad’s auto parts store.  He took the initiative to construct an intricate arcade, out of cardboard.  His hopes were more than the construction, he was guided on a deeper level; his dreams were bigger, that customers would visit and partake in his creation.

Unfortunately, the location of his Dad’s store deemed little traffic.  Then fate took the upper hand. By kismet, Nirvan Mullick, a filmmaker and digital strategist for ‘social good’ campaigns walked into the parts store.  Now that is all history.  A short film was produced, the story about ‘Caine’s Arcade’.

What We Know and How We Live Our Life

November 18, 2011

‘What we know’ and ‘how we live our life’ are two different realms.  The ‘what we know’ person is the sophisticated, educated reader.  This learned individual is a vessel of information.  As I see it, essentially it is someone who has accumulated data, details and evidence.  Knowledge has merit, but leaves little room for true [...]
