Anais Nin believes in self-development. She writes, "Every human being should push his development and skills and creativity as far as possible, as only then does one become valuable to the community, valuable to others. It is wrong to hold people back to remain on the level with the herd. We need explorers, adventurers, pathfinders, models, inventors. The real democracy is to develop yourself as much as possible, for then you can teach and help others."
So, be an explorer. Ask "Why?" Get out of the box, and look somewhere else. Dig deeper. Look at things from a different perspective. Look at the forest instead of the trees. Just try one of your ideas, and see where it goes. Challenge assumptions and rules. Ask, how would Anais approach this?
