That elusive “Aha!” moment
You look familiar. Are you on Twitter? Subscribed to my feed yet?
Have you ever experienced a self-defining moment? Where you realize that the seemingly benign thought that just floated through your mind has the potential to change your life?
Well that happened to me today. I was reading a blog post about the problems that a particular company was having with their online marketing model and thinking about how to apply some of the ideas to my own company, when suddenly one of those concepts came rushing back to me in huge bold flashing font complete with the opening chords of Beethoven’s 5th.
In that one moment of complete clarity, I realized that I had both the solution to a frustrating time-management problem AND a new business model. Eureka! My “Aha” moment has given me renewed enthusiasm for this industry and I can’t wait to get started on the big idea. More details soon!

Every moment for me is Aha. It could be that we are just that amazing.
I think we should start a guessing game about what the thought was. I will start it out with:
“Starting an online store selling Eureka Vaccum cleaners. All the while keeping the same SEO friendly design of the company’s homepage? (http://www.eureka.com/)”
Even though I guess that would be possible… I just hope someone fixes their homepage.
