#414: Dig Deep (Friday, December 5)

"Dig deep into your soul and pull out some new shit that no one has ever seen before." -De La Vega

The Gold Rush of 1849 started because one man found flakes of gold in the American River. The gold wasn't hidden, he didn't have to dig for it - it was there for the taking. The first people who joined the gold rush didn't have to perform much labor to find the gold either. It was pretty close to the surface.

But as more people came and took the gold on the surface, latecomers had to dig deeper and expend more effort to be rewarded. So it is with life; the older you get deeper you have to dig and the more you have to challenge yourself to be truly inventive.

This week's action: Dig deep and pull out something new.
