Incomplete Manifesto

A coworker sent me to an interesting site today: Bruce Mau’s Incomplete Manifesto for Growth. It’s a collection of 43 ideas for inspiring creativity and growing as a person.

I think we’d benefit from rigorous study of them all, but here are a couple of my favorites:

9. Begin anywhere. John Cage tells us that not knowing where to begin is a common form of paralysis. His advice: begin anywhere.

14. Don’t be cool. Cool is conservative fear dressed in black. Free yourself from limits of this sort.

33. Take field trips. The bandwidth of the world is greater than that of your TV set, or the Internet, or even a totally immersive, interactive, dynamically rendered, object-oriented, real-time, computer graphic?simulated environment.
