could today be your last dreaded long haul?
what if

Inspired by the first page of Seth Godin’s Poke the Box, first release from The Domino Project, Powered by Amazon. 83 pages later, this quote:
“There are two mistakes one can make along the road (hall/haul) to truth: Not going all the way, and not starting”
– Siddhārtha Gautama
Between those pages? Permission to poke. To start, to do and to ship.

diamond in the rough?
perhaps neil needs to poke the box

Perhaps you’ve been holding on to some antiquated ideas about the way things ‘should’ be. Perhaps it’s been this way for a long time. Perhaps it’s time for a change, or at least a new haircut…
Out today under the new publishing venture, The Domino Project powered by Amazon – Seth Godin’s, Poke the Box – a tiny book filled with big ideas (not to mention a bold graphic joyful retro-clip art dude on the cover). Unlike Neil Diamond, if you’ve ever dabbled with fear, failure and/or resistance this book may just help you instigate, go, do and ship.
In other words, perhaps you need to just bring your self some flowers.
