49: Things to Remember When You're Trying to Learn, Create, or Accomplish Anything

by Dane Saad, Dane Johnson, April Soetarman

Everywhere we look, there is a new formula for being successful. Yet, there isn’t a perfect form for creating or completing something great.

So, when the students at Experience Institute were tasked with writing a series of lessons for a new high school leadership program in East Chicago, they tried something different. They created reminders – nudges that would push the students, and others, to pursue and navigate creative projects and meaningful work.

Therefore, this is not a how-to book.

These lessons were compiled to fuel the courage of those who are brave (or foolish) enough to challenge the status quo and blaze new routes to a better world.

It is a simple, no fluff batch of reminders – lessons that have been learned during challenging journeys and shared to spark new ones.

We hope they inspire you toward action, knowing that profound learning happens when you take a chance on your dreams and then risk to make them happen.
