I just posted this on YouTube and so far the response has been overwhelmingly positive:

YouTube - Life Is Like A Cup of Coffee - Inspirational Story

If you feel inspired or touched by it, feel free to pass it along!

Good stuff Chris...I like it.....

borisg · 02-07-2009, 09:48 PM

did you create it yourself?

Chris Cade · 02-08-2009, 05:02 AM

I'm glad you enjoyed it, leaderspd!

My intention is to reach 1,000,000 people with it -- and I believe that as people email it to friends and family, share it on Facebook / Twitter... I may be setting my sights too low.

borisg - I got the music, pictures, and text, and then hired somebody who actually knows video/audio to put it all together... then we went through about 6 drafts with consistent feedback from me to get the final result.

I gained a lot of pleasure and insight from that video. Good job, and that's an awesome goal you have!

Ironically, one of the ways to have a better life is to drink less coffee...

I'm grateful you enjoyed it! So far it is going well... almost 1,000 views in the last week. Sure at that rate, it'll take a long time to reach 1,000,000.... but I think it'll start picking up as people send it via email, share it on Facebook and Twitter and MySpace, etc.

True. I stopped drinking caffeine when I was 14.

(well sort of... then I discovered why Barq's had bite... so I didn't fully stop until a few years later)

(but then I discovered dark chocolate... speaking of which, be right back! Dessert time...

I couldn't figure out how to edit my original post, so I'm just replying and editing the quote

(Next best thing!)

Anyway, I decided to get a domain just for the video so it can be found here now:

Life Is Like A Cup of Coffee

Thanks again for all of your support - it's already inspired over 3,000 people in just the few short weeks it's been up.
