What if…?
You lived everyday like it was all that mattered.
You put your passion to work 24/7.
You changed everything.
The structure around you was just an illusion.
Things were infinite in all directions.
Nothing was as out of reach as it seems.
You stopped overthinking and started acting.
You focused on the small things to achieve big.
You learned one new thing every day.
You decided to stand out.
You showed your true personality.
You considered your mistakes beautiful.
We all found a common ground.
You helped give someone new a chance.
You decided to make art.
You talked with your customers, not at them.
You worked to improve things bit by bit everyday.
You were exactly who you wanted to be.
You approached everything without fear.
You defined a career mission.
You were the one changing the world instead of watching the world change.
You worked backwards.
You stopped looking in just one direction.
You cared about being remarkable more than making money.
You created directly for your fans.
You used your influence for good.
You took action today.
You didn’t just follow, you made genuine connections.
Simplicity was the default.
You spent time each week trying to inspire someone.
You ignored those around you who are jaded and surrounded yourself with the right influences.
Your work was just like breathing.
You marketed companies by day, ideas by night.
You embraced forgiveness.
You weren’t afraid to join the conversation.
You kept a positive mindset, even when things aren’t perfect.
You worked relentlessly on self-actualization.
You knew then what you know now.
You took a chance.
You decided to set yourself apart from the crowd.
You read one book a week.
You worked to achieve your dreams instead of just dreaming them.

Amazing post.
Really liked the part about being who you want to be and simplicity being the default.
solid links too. incl to my mate glen’s bog =D
was surprisingly inspired by some of them, i guess surprised since i’m so used to seeing these kinds of messages. i think the “What if” makes you engaged in a different way.
powerful stuff
talk to you soon

What an INCREDIBLE way to begin the day — reading and thinking about so many philosophies that I hold to be true, but if I had to pick only one to call attention to it would be Putting Passion to Work 24/7. Thanks, Adam, I’m sending this to everyone I know.

If you did work 24/7 you could surely get amazing results. But it would be a pretty empty life. You can’t waste all your energy on work.
