My name is Jim Love.
I've been in IT and business for over 30 years. I worked my way up, literally from the mail room and I've done every job from mail clerk to CEO.
Today I'm a CIO and I sit on the boards of a couple of companies.
But this isn't about my work - this is my personal blog.
My personal twitter account describes me with a line from the Steve Miller song -- "I'm a picker, I'm a grinner, I'm a lover and I'm a sinner."
There are two more. I'm a writer and a dreamer.
So here I write. I muse about professional thoughts. I share intensely personal moments and insights. I live out loud.
I marvel a the extraordinary. Every accomplishment, every great thing we do in our lives starts with a dream. The difference is that some people are content to dream them. Some have to live them. Some are driven to pursue the extraordinary. Sometimes you win. Sometimes you lose. Sometimes you change the game.

Today, on a beautiful Friday afternoon in late September – what could be one of the last great summer-like days of the year we did somethign crazy. We said “to heck with that” and headed indoors to a crowded lecture theatre in the Engineering building at the University of Waterloo. It was worth every minute. Continue reading →
