Is there a whisper inside of you saying that there is something meaningful that you can give the world? Do you want to start a movement? What’s preventing you from making it happen?
I recently spent some time speaking to Zephan Moses Blaxberg on The Year of Purpose podcast about how to start a movement and what you can do to overcome your fears so that you can make big things happen.
Life is too short to not do something you’re totally passionate about. To not do something legendary.
But change is hard. Even small changes, such as little annoying habits, are hard to make.
And when you think about turning your whole life around 180 degrees and changing course for the next 30 years? That can be completely daunting.
Can you do it just for a moment, though?
Winning the Thought Leader of the Year award, in my opinion, has less to do with my abilities as a thinker or a speaker, and more to do with the state of the world right now. People are hungry to see the world become a better place. People want to start movements. People want to be a part of something bigger than themselves. All I do is share the timeless information that others have used in the past to achieve the same thing that most in the world are desiring to do themselves right now.
I am hopeful that the world is becoming better every single day, and the challenges we face won’t defeat us, but will mobilize and unite us. The world will win, and we will be better off for it.
You’ve got something meaningful to share with the world. Go for it.
One of the the most intense parts of being at the TED Global conference in Geneva last week was watching Melissa Fleming’s talk on the Syrian refugee crisis, and having a Q&A session with her afterward. Her talk will inspire you to take personal action to help the millions of Syrians who have been displaced from their homes.
How would your life change if you no longer had to work to earn a living and could spend your time pursuing passions and interests? More importantly, how would the world need to change in order to make that possible?
Over 50 years ago, Bucky Fuller said something that should shake the foundation of everything we are currently doing and challenge our entire system. What would YOU do without a job?
