Get Inspired Everyday

In 2008, I read a blog post by Seth Godin titled "Is Effort a Myth?" that inspired me. In the post, Godin argues that aside from the outliers (lottery winners etc.), effort is directly related to success. At the end of the post, he proposes deleting 120 minutes everyday that is spent wasting time, and instead spending it on a list of items designed to increase knowledge, productivity, and valuable skills.

In the five years since I've read this post, I've come back to it dozens of times for inspiration. But I haven't had the discipline needed to actually follow his recommended steps. Until now.

Today I am committing to following Godin's plan for at least six months. As part of that plan, I have started this blog to list one thing everyday that inspires me. This blog is mainly for me, but since you've stumbled upon it one way or another, I hope that it will serve to inspire you too.
