What Happens When You Ask 120 Strangers a Question?

Last year I launched Triigo Project just prior to the start of Day 1 of World Domination wds 2014 1626Summit. It was a leap of faith and so far out of my comfort zone! Not only did I speak to hundreds of new people, I also asked over 120 people to answer a question, write on a board and have their picture taken. Surprisingly, over 113 people said YES!

The question was the same. Some people answered quickly grabbing the marker from my hand while others needed time to think. So many wonderful answers and such a great way to meet amazing people, some of whom I randomly met again months later.

Slowly, each picture will receive its own post. I will admit that my blog posts occur with less frequency than preferred but they are coming.

For now, it’s time to share all the answers with you.
