Future Belongs to Us

My 2015 was about more doing and less talking. On the personal front; I worked on this map, due to other priority one tasks, coupled with my laziness and other projects I started that are yet to complete – unfortunately didn’t at all work on Quiz. My priority for 2016 will definitely be Quiz, D3 projects similar to Nepal literacy map and other aspects of my own site.

All I have for my year-end blog post are these words by Seth Godin:

The first lie…

is that you’re going to need far more talent than you were born with.

The second lie is that the people who are leading in the new connection economy got there because they have something you don’t.

The third lie is that you have to be chosen.

The fourth lie is that we’re not afraid.

We’re afraid.

Afraid to lead, to make a ruckus, to convene. Afraid to be vulnerable, to be called out, to be seen as a fraud.

The connection economy isn’t based on steel or rails or buildings. It’s built on trust and hope and passion.

The future belongs to those that care and those that believe.

This year I had the opportunity to witness Seth Godin speak live at an event.

If future does belong to those that care and those that believe, then 2016 has my name written all over it.

Happy New year!
