Looking for some inspiration? There is plenty on aisle 1

what-would-you-doThis is rather not my usual post on this blog, but I thought I’d share with you a slice of inspiration.

Yesterday I went to WholeFoods, looking for a French style dinner: old & creamy cheese, nuts and grapes. To my surprise, I was able to find a lot more that just a dinner: I found an idea, a slice of inspiration … on a cup.

As I was strolling down the colorful aisles, I was glancing randomly at the products on the shelves, when a black cup caught my attention. An interesting question was uncovered in less than one step around the cup: What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?  This got me thinking.

I stoppped for a minute and asked myself: what would I attempt to do if I knew I could not fail? My first thought was: exactly what I’m doing now, but faster, better, bolder and bigger. Then, I realized that this is the only way to do something you strongly believe in.  

If you have an idea grounded in a Need or a Want, go for it. There is no good enough reason not to do it — plan to succeed, be ambitious, persistent, bright, bold and fearless.

Cheers to you and a great 2009!
