The most useful work we create causes a change to happen. And the more profound the change, the less predictable it is.*
Seth Godin
Randomness keeps your mind open and observant.**
Derek Sivers
Here’s a little reflection to follow Both Halves:
We’re made for change and growth,
So much so, we have no idea what we’re capable of,
Only a long list of what we haven’t tried –
A personal reflection;
It doesn’t have to be about big things, per se, but consistently keeping on,
Changing small things,
Producing surprise and randomness,
Allowing complexity to grow,
Unsettling us enough to know we are
alive –
Too much settled is not
good for us,
Causing us to look
for the wrong kind of excitement just to
feel alive, but
there’s no substitute for pursuing
that which we must do for the sake of others.
