Wowday

1 Comments
I love reading the posts from Seth Godin's blog because they always get me thinking. While I don't always agree with what he writes, I enjoy pondering the wide variety of subjects he touches upon and forming my own opinions. Seth Godin is a best selling author of 17 books on top of many other things. He writes about how ideas spread, marketing, and changing everything. I'd encourage you to pop over and take a look! 

Today's post was on having a "wowday" and I found the concept intriguing:

---------------------------------------------------------------------

"Halloween gives you permission to dress up. April Fool's, a chance to play a prank.

What if there was one day of the year where you had permission to do things that made people say, "wow."

Acts of generosity or bravery or insight...

What if you focused and practiced and got your nerve up and leaned way over the edge, just one day of the year? If you could get out of your comfort zone for a few hours in a way that benefitted and delighted people you care about, what would that look and feel like?

Today might be your wowday.

Or tomorrow.


Up to you."

it is so hard for most to get out of comfort zones...i don't know exactly why, but the idea of a special day with "permission" is indeed an interesting one. With our lives hidden in our Lord Jesus, we should be ready to have a wowday - every day, right?
