The world is watching...you!

Be honest - who hasn’t felt like they’re the star of their own ‘Truman Show’?

Whether it be the result of a series of déjà-vu’s or the hope that there’s gotta be something out there (that’s actually the reason why we haven’t gone out and conquered the world…yet), or maybe it’s just the fact that we’re all a little chemically imbalanced…we’ve all had the suspicion that we’re the main character in an unseen play that’s evolving around us, and us alone…

Whether we are or not, who knows…that’s not for me to say…but Jim Carrey’s ‘Truman’ should be held up as an icon – an icon of the brave and the adventurous…not because he lived his life in (sickeningly) idyllic mediocrity, but because he fought it. Sure it took him a good 30 years to realise that there might be more out there, but realise it he did!

And so the question begs; how many of us have realised that we aren’t where we want to be? A handful, maybe. But how many of those few, have had the brass cahoneys to actually do something about it? Fewer still. And yet through those dwindling figures, Truman’s one of them. Are you? Hhmmm, worth thinking about, isn’t it…

And that’s why Truman should be up there with the very best of us…because he inspires the need to change things up – to challenge, rebel and explore. He inspires us to the art of spontaneity and how even just a pinch of the ‘out of the ordinary’ can invigorate and inspire us to break out from the corporate norm…

So I challenge you to do the same: To look at things differently – honestly – and see whether there’s anything you can do to be even just a bit more adventurous…and I’ll do the same…and then I’ll meet you Fiji…deal?
