What are you famous for?



Some folks are famous for "making and presenting yummy pancakes" [see photo].


I am famous for inventing minimal-you [Tardis version 2.0] mind software. I am famous for a book of short stories, 'The heron and the fish', which is a compendium of insights into the impact of the predator, and the victim, that lurks within each of us. I am famous too for a science fiction novel, 'Memes', which is set at the end of this Century with its insights into the future drivers of "social evolution". Those are my version of yummy pancakes. However. All the fame I will attract because I serve-up those yummy pancakes is yet to land.... ha, ha, ha....


What are you famous for?


I am not famous for my work at NASA. I am not famous for my work in Australian politics. I am not famous for my work as an unconstrained "contrarian thinker" who acted as a hired gun to reform corporate and public service cultures. And yet, I am somewhat famous for work done with a great group of undergraduate, and post-graduate, students who attended my menu of courses on decision-making, strategy, and policy science. However. I achieved this "modicum of fame" only because we had a robust exchange of ideas. The truth is I am not famous for most of the hard work I have done to earn a living over my life.

Please let me know in the comments section below just "what you are famous for" with familial, colleagues, cohorts, etc. What is the equivalent of your "yummy pancake" stack? Alternatively you can send me your response via email or direct messaging [scroll down a little further to see these windows or go to the home page of minimal-you.com].
