What a nice week! I’ve been visiting friends in Massachusetts and we celebrated our first birthday as your one-stop shop for ideas and inspiration to create the future. Here’s what we talked about:

• Monday, I wrote about the true nature of money, and how we can recognize and wield its creative power.
• Tuesday, Uli rounded up lots of great stories of progress from around the world, including her own business!
• Wednesday and Thursday, we celebrated our anniversary by posting some of our best and most popular articles from the last year

This week’s video comes from our main man, President Barack Obama. His weekly addresses are available on Youtube and as podcasts through iTunes, and it’s great to hear straight from him what’s going on each week.

Last week he discussed the flooding in North Dakota, South Dakota, and Minnesota, and pointed out how important individual effort is in addressing these and all of our crises. “In the face of an incredible challenge, the people of these communities have rallied in support of one another. Their service isn’t just inspirational, it’s integral to our response. It’s also a reminder of what we can achieve when Americans come together to serve their communities.”

How awesome is it to hear our President say things like “We’re all in this together”?? Have a great weekend—see you next week!
