My dad recommended Seth Godin's blog to me. Seth is known as a marketing guru, and has written many best sellers on the topic of innovative marketing. I love this video he posted on his blog in reference to being the initiator of a MOVEMENT. Here's his quote and the video:
"Paul just sent over this video of a dance tribe forming spontaneously at a music festival.
My favorite part happens just before the first minute mark. That's when guy #3 joins the group. Before him, it was just a crazy dancing guy and then maybe one other crazy guy. But it's guy #3 who made it a movement.
Initiators are rare indeed, but it's scary to be the leader. Guy #3 is rare too, but it's a lot less scary and just as important. Guy #49 is irrelevant. No bravery points for being part of the mob.
We need more guy #3s."

WHO ARE MY IMAGINARY FRIENDS?
When I was an only child, before my sisters were born I created 2 imaginary friends Dino and Beano to keep me company. We jumped on the bed together alot and I protected them from getting sat upon at the dinner table. As a bigger kid and one who has grown to be an artist, my imaginary friends are the things and ideas that inspire me. This blog is a collection of things that inspire me.
