I coulda been a dancer

I am consumed by work. So much so that I dream about it. In fact, last night, I was dreaming a normal coming-of-age, maybe I'll be a ballerina dream when all of a sudden I was plieing into the office. It was awkward. I plied (there is no good way to spell that) right into the finance department and I'm SURE that there was no reason for that. Anyway, my dream told me to go back and get more in touch with the marketplace. So today, I read some blogs. God, I love Seth Godin's blog. Check it out: Seth's Blog.

But I stole this from his blog because, well, it's relevant:

"Some people want to do things because they are interesting.
Some people want to do things because they work.
Some people want to do things because everyone else is doing them.

And some people are satisfied/scared/shy/lazy and don't do anything.

Think about blogging or buying a new pair of shoes or voting for a candidate or picking one career over another. Different people have very different agendas. The key in understanding someone's actions is understanding their agenda.

That salesperson who does everything by the book is not interested in the thrill of discovery. That retired steel worker that is hesitating to vote for your candidate is wondering what everyone else is going to do. And that unpredictable blogger keeps changing the rules because the rules bore him."
