On the old billcraig.info web site I had a collection of manifestos that I liked and collected over time. Unfortunately, the collection has been lost with time.

When I started doing what I call more meaningful work, I plotted a 42 x 80 inch version of the Holstee Manifesto and mounted it in the primary meeting area of my home. Whenever I had friends and colleagues over I would get them to sign in red beside the phrase that meant the most to them. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Over a few years there was more red ink than the original black ink of the manifesto original text. It was a great conversation piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m currently working on creating new creeds and manifestos for a couple of my initiatives. One called the Flourish Manifesto<\/a> and the other Wellbeing Manifesto. I’ll focus on the Flourish Manifesto first, then the Wellbeing Manifesto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
