7. Come alive. Become a youer version of you. Extend yourself. Consider distributing your unique talent, to wherever it is needed.

As for all the other things:

• Who started it?
• Are we going to make it?
• Where are we going to put it?
• Who’s going to clean up?
• Is it serious?
• Do we have time for coffee?

Suddenly, you see a whole world, clearly.
