Today’s book: Originals by Adam Grant—a powerful exploration of how people challenge the status quo, drive innovation, and make a difference by thinking differently—and acting courageously.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Originals aren’t born—they’re made. Creativity and risk-taking are skills you can develop with intention.
- You don’t need to go all in. Many successful Originals keep their day jobs while testing new ideas on the side.
- Procrastination can be productive. Strategic delay gives ideas time to mature—and sparks deeper insights.
- Speak up with purpose. Challenge the norm by offering better alternatives, not just criticism.
- Champion others. Great leaders nurture originality in their teams by encouraging dissent, curiosity, and autonomy.
Changing the world starts by thinking differently. What bold idea will you move forward today?
