Unique Is What You Seek

"Most people grow old within a small circles of ideas, which they have not discovered for themselves."

Marquis de Vauvenargues
18th century French moralist/writer

And by "discovered" he only means finding the idea not inventing the original thought behind it.

We all could and should do so much more original thinking.

Try this.  Make a list of the things you've done in your business life that are truly unique to you.

Don't worry if the list is not all that long; that is what has been, which is not necessarily what will be.

Begin now to make the list longer.
