Brainwashed: Seven ways to reinvent yourself.
What an awesome mini-manifesto from Seth Godin over at ChangeThis.com
It’s like this: we were brainwashed. Brainwashed into believing a set of rules that aren’t true (any more). And because the brainwashing has been so complete, the shifts in our world and new opportunities they open up are easy to see as ways to shore up yesterday’s faltering system. Please, don’t fall for that. Don’t use the tools of today to support your effort to do yesterday’s job better.
This is an opportunity to completely reinvent your role in the system.
Here are seven levers available for anyone (like you) in search of reinvention:
- Connect
- Be generous
- Make art
- Acknowledge the lizard
- Ship
- Fail
Seth’s thinks this is the time. If you’re going to make a big move in life, if you’re going to live an extraordinary life, if you’re going to “do something with yourself,” now is the time.
Guess you’ll have to read it to figure out exactly what he means by “Acknowledge the lizard.”
It’s on you now…Go get the short, 15 page, BIG TYPE, easy read pdf.
