2009 is turning out to be more fun than I imagined. My single crazy goal this year is to interview "The World's Most Confident People"...
I am currently traveling around the world, interviewing a very select group of people, including a range of internationally recognized names. The funny thing is that many of the people I have interviewed have the same response "I'm not as confident as you think I am..."
