The Icarus Deception


Yesterday I started working on 2013 reading challenge.

As the second book for this challenge, I chose the following book.


You can see the term "art" many times in this book.

What is "art" then?

Seth Godin defines "art" as follows:

"Art is what we do when we're truly alive."
"Art is who we are and what we do and what we need."
"An artist is someone who uses bravery, insight, creativity and boldness to challenge the status quo."
"Art isn't a result; it's a journey.  The challenge of our time is to find a journey worthy of your heart and your soul."

This book encouraged me to be an "artist" in the field of my workplace as well as my private life.

The industrialized age was over, and now we are in the new age where "connection" is indispensable.

I wonder how much people will miss me if I'm not back here again tomorrow.

A beautiful quote by Hinohara Shigeaki taught me how to lead my life this year:

"Spending your time for others will bring you new encounters.
(時間をひとのために使うと、新しい出会いが生まれます。)
