"The Cul-de-Sac ( French for "dead end" ) ... is a situation where you work and work and work and nothing much changes" - Seth Godin

For many of us, the happiest future is one that's precisely like the past, except a little better

Every day I meet people who have so much to give but have been bullied enough or frightened enough to hold it back. It's time to stop complying with the system and draw your own map. You have brilliance in you, your contribution is essential, and the art you create is precious. Only you can do it, and you must.

You will fail at this. Often. Why is that a problem? In fact, this is a boon. It’s a boon because when others fail to be remarkable or make a difference or share their art or have an impact, they will give up.
