“Big Yellow Taxi there by Joni Mitchell, a song in which she complains that they ‘paved paradise to put up a parking lot’ – a measure which actually would have alleviated traffic congestion on the outskirts of paradise. Something which Joni singularly fails to point out, perhaps because it doesn’t quite fit in with her blinkered view of the world. Nevertheless, nice song.”

— Alan Gordon Partridge.

3) Quote of the week.

Our days are filled with the path to future skills, tasks and commitments that we believe we can’t possibly take on. We’ve seduced ourselves into believing that we’re not born with the talent, or that the obstacles to doing the work are just too great.

In fact, it’s more likely that we’ve simply decided that the work isn’t worth the effort.

Or the fear is too much to bear.

But it’s hardly impossible.

We just don’t care enough.

— Seth Godin.
