109 - Opportunity Through the Eyes of a Child


Listen Later

What do you see when you look at a pile of empty, broken boxes that have been rained on?

Do you see trash that needs to be cleaned up? That's not unreasonable.

Do you see the makings of a fun, funky, fantastic obstacle course? That's what a child sees.

In The Little Prince, the Aviator says, "Growing up is not the problem. Forgetting is."

As we grow up, we limit our view of the world to that which is reasonable and rational. But great things are done by those who think beyond reason.

Was it reasonable to say that humans could fly?

Was it reasonable to suggest that people could be connected by tiny computers in their pocket?

Was it reasonable to build a car that everyone could afford?

When you see the world through the eyes of a child, you see opportunities where others see obstacles. You see a path where others see a thicket.

When you can see like no one else, you can do what no one else does.

How can you turn trash into fun today?
