Doing the big work: An inspiration story-day day 107.1

A great quote or shall I say mission by Seth Godin, always good for a morning reflection. This guy seems to be feel when I need a kind of wake up call.

This was it this morning:

Doing the big work (at the little table)

Most of the day is spent in little work. Clerical, bureaucratic, meetings, polishing, improving, reacting, responding.
The obligation is to carve out time for the big work.
The big work that scares you, that brings risk, that might very well fail.
And we're most likely to do that work when it's least expected, when the table is small, the resources are lacking and time is short.
No need to wait for permission or the lightning bolt of inspiration. 
The big work is available to you as soon as you decide to do it.

Is more always better? An inspiration story-day day 106.1



Is more always better? Sometimes, only better is better.
A wise quote by Seth Godin. 
His short thoughts are normally the best. This guy can capture some intuitive wisdom in one, clear no nonsense phrase. Great.
