AFFIRMATION

"If you're looking for 'how', if you're looking for a map, for a way to industrialize the new era, you've totally missed the point and you will end up disappointed. The nature of the last era was that repetition and management of results increased profits. The nature of this one is the opposite: if someone can tell you precisely what to do, it's too late. Art and novelty and innovation cannot be reliably and successfully industrialized." - Seth Godin: The Opportunity Is Here

Okay, okay...we both know why I like Godin's latest blog post. If, in fact, he's right, well...then...I'm a genius!

There are more moments of sheer terror doing this...than, I don't know...doing whatever it is I might otherwise be doing. But there are also moments of supreme encouragement and affirmation.

Whenever I get a hearty slap on the back (thanks, Seth!), I am grateful, indeed.
