Entertainment has seduced us into believing that we have a chance to live the life they live in the movies. Even the people in the movies don't live that life. It doesn't take 135 minutes to make a life, it takes almost a century. Everything doesn't depend on what happens in the next ninety seconds. Ever.

And in a world where we have too many choices and too little time, the obvious thing to do is just ignore stuff.

Who's going to stop and pull over and say, oh, look, a cow? Nobody.

If you're not the best in the world at what you do, then you have to get better.
Seth Godin
Image
I don't think we have any choice. I think we have an obligation to change the rules, to raise the bar, to play a different game, and to play it better than anyone has any right to believe is possible.
