brain pickings

what’s the point

the world collectively lost its s#!t when Simon Sinek published his now bestseller, Start with Why.

for the first time in the history of trade, we’re not selling services because:
A. we were born into it
B. our livelihood depends on it
C. it’s just way things are

we do it because we want to make an impact, we want change, we want to matter, to be unique, to be remembered, to be appreciated,

we also want money, but that’s not new.

when why replaces how,
work is whatever you want to change,
and what a privilege that is.

I’ll see you tomorrow.

today is day 207 of the year, there are 158 days remaining of 2022.
