getting things done vs. making things happen

Thu, 17 Dec 2009 09:20:38 -0500

amber-rae:

Getting things done is not the same as making things happen.

You can…
…reply to email.
…pay the bills.
…cross off to-do’s.
…fulﬁll your obligation.
…repeat what you heard.
…go with the ﬂow.
…anticipate roadblocks.
…aim for “good enough.”

Or you can…
…organize a community.
…take a risk.
…set ambitious goals.
…give more than you take.
…change perceptions.
…forge a new path.
…create possibility.
…demand excellence.

Don’t worry too much about getting things done.

Make things happen.

Spektrum Poster by Martijn van Dam (Super Silo)

This poster is pure awesome. Even better, Martijn has a video capture of the work in progress here. But be warned, it moves fast and might give you a headache.

The rest of Martijn’s work can be found by clicking the image.

This is great - and the process video is inspiring.

“People sometimes think things like twitter just take off overnight. Nope. It took them a few years to get real traction. Keep at it if you are still in year 1 or 2 of your business. Give your business at least 3 years.”

- Getting More Awesome - Rishi’s Personal Blog: Reminder: Twitter was started in 2006 (via hiten)

Dovetails with this recent article from Joel Spolsky in Inc Magazine. He brings up that it took them 3 years to figure out the right way to focus on their anchor product.

spiegelman:

Ladies and gentlemen, your President is a robot. Or a wax sculpture. Maybe a cardboard cutout. All I know is no human being has a photo smile this amazingly consistent.

On Wednesday, the Obamas hosted a reception at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, during which they stood for 130 photographs with visiting foreign dignitaries in town for the UN meeting. The President has exactly the same smile in every single shot. See for yourself — the pictures are up on the State Department’s flickr. And, of course, compressed above into 20 seconds for your viewing pleasure.

Hi Dustin - great fun. Wish I could have taken advantage of the same program. I worked one summer for Jetblue and love the people in the company. Great times. How about mapping/annotating the stories/people you meet?

Too bad JetBlue’s onboard internet is not great. Virgin America and a couple others have it going on with gogo’s internet (I used it this weekend on AA).
