Or cheque, for us Englanders.
This post from Seth Godin ((one of the few people on earth always worth listening to)) sums up very neatly some of the ideas and concepts about ourselves and our potential I’m working on at the moment.
A check in your wallet does you very little good. It represents opportunity, sure, but not action. Most of us are carrying around a check, an opportunity to make an impact, to do the work we’re capapble of, to ship the art that would make a difference.
