You do it

There are a million different things that bug billions of different people … so the bugs that stick out to you might be worth listening to. They’re your bugs. They just might be guiding you toward your proper path.*
Gabe Anderson

When a musician, a playwright or an entrepreneur takes a risk, they’re betting someone will care enough to hear them and engage with them. They do the work because they care, not because someone handed them a manual.**
Seth Godin

Are you waiting for someone else to
come along and
do something
about that thing you can’t help but
notice?

Whether it’s something that
really gets on your nerves, or
you’ve always wanted to do,
Don’t wait, find
the smallest way for doing something about it
today.

It’s how I got into
dreamwhispering, and today
I will be with a small crowd of people
in the university I’m about to retire from, who are
wanting to see whether they can
connect it with their work
in some way or other.

How will you go about finding that thing
the nature of which is totally unknown to you?^
