    ⚜️Below are my thoughts about business and life and it became my creed. How this came about was the famous French author Theodore Zeldin from the Oxford Muse contacted me and had me    perform a writing exercise about what I truly thought about the world around me. The below is what I wrote and it was like having an out-of-body experience.

    ⚜️Creed

        ~ I believe life is about finding and releasing the magic found in the mind - in particular the creativity of invention and collaboration of intelligence with the awakening of our innovative spirit.

        ~ I believe our minds act as a conductor between the future to the present and dreams becoming logical and the imagination becoming practical. Where creativity is nurtured to help solve problems for others and create new growth for all those in the future.

        ~ I champion all children, emerging technology, pervasive computing, improved semantic search technologies, augmented realities, artificial intelligence, all to be combined into an implosion of knowledge and spiritual growth for all, as I believe with any invention, innovation, creation, along with science and technology, including the performing arts, we are witnessing the 'affect' of the one's gift that created it. ~J.D. Gragg
