Remarkable People
Monday. 4.25.11 6:17 am
Sometimes I wonder how remarkable people end up being so remarkable. Are they simply born remarkable? I would like to be remarkable, but I am not entirely sure about how to go about it. All of my passion to reduce sex trafficking through education, help develop a sewing robot to decrease the demand for sweatshop labor, to write novels to inspire young girls and boys into action themselves, to share my mind in a million different ways... it's all a little over my head right now.

It's like, in an average day (probably because of watching too much Ted.com) I feel like I'm inspired to do 60million amazing things to help humanity and I have to admit, while creative, I don't know if I have enough lifetimes to figure out how to go about them all. Sorry, child soldier in Africa. Sorry, sweat shop laborers in Bangladesh and Vietnam. "Knowing is knowing that you know nothing." - Socrates

Remarkable people are pretty much normal people until they're recognized, I think, and then everyone starts picking out things about them that seem remarkable.

I think remarkable people are just those people who pick one or more of those things that you listed above and then just take concrete steps every single day to make it happen. I know this scientist, he is amazingly productive and remarkable, and I think it's because whenever someone says, "You know what would be cool?" he says, "Let's do it... RIGHT NOW."

And then he does. O.O Amazing. It's like saying "excellence is a habit". It isn't really accomplishing this giant feat of being remarkable as much as it seems to be the consistent stubborn repeated effort to do small productive things that add up to something incredible.
