I started his blog because I wanted to share my learning and ideas; the ones I had gathered and analysed and made decisions upon for myself.
Its fun to be creative in this way and actually not as difficult as you fear it will be. And I think that is why many people do hide from their creative side - fear. Usually fear of failure.
I try and follow Seth Godin having read his excellent book, Linchpin. His most recent project is The Domino Project which in itself has provided me with 3 more thought provoking kindle reads (all for free, check out how this is possible at their Web site).
Today they launched a 30 day initiative entitled Trust Yourself (#Trust30) based on the spirit within their last ebook launch, Self-Reliance by Ralph Waldo Emerson. Using their words: "It’s an opportunity to reflect on your now and create direction for your future."
That kind of sounds like why I started doing this a few months ago. I needed reminding of that and this challenge has given me back that focus. I've pledged on their Web site. I might fail, hey, I might succeed but at very least I will have acted and that might well take me somewhere new.
Where will the next 30 days take you?
