Three Principles for a Creative, Innovative and Impactful 2013
Posted by Plish on January 4, 2013
I read this amazing little piece written by Steven Zuckerman. Steven reflected on his experiences planning a celebratory event honoring the great musician and inventor, Les Paul.
It’s an extremely short piece and worth reading in its entirety. It can however, be summarized in three short principles:
- “No one told me I couldn’t do it” – Steven Zuckerman
- Doing good things will touch people’s hearts and the results will reverberate like ripples on a pond. (One of those ripples touched Paul McCartney.)
- “It wasn’t there and it should be.” – Les Paul
Think about it.
If you go through life, trying to touch people’s’ hearts with goodness…
If you’re bold enough to initiate new projects without needing permission…
If your eyes are open to needs and your hands ready to craft something to fill those needs…
Think about what you could accomplish!
Or better yet,
- stop thinking, start doing -
