“To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.”  ~unknown

It’s funny, I have two sites this one and procrastination.com.

Yeah that’s right, the same guy that has been telling folks to embrace and own their ways of procrastination for years, is now talking about how we can be10percentbetter.  Is it ironic, schizoid, or just fraternal twins? Probably a little of each.  To some these are polar opposite concepts but I like to think of it as two sides of the same coin.

See, I built procrastination with the idea that we all do it so let’s not beat ourselves up for it but figure out how to embrace it and make it work for us.  I see procrastination as the way we slow it down since we are all so busy all the time.  The only time I can take a breath is by sneaking in some quality procrastinating.  And by taking that breath the rest of my day would be better.  See where I’m going?  If we embrace our procrastination, a little bit, we’d all be better because of it.  Not bad, right?  See the connection?

So let us fast forward from that mostly funny, irreverent, tongue in cheek type-site to this simple one of let’s all be10percentbetter.

It’s a simple idea that I’m tossing out into the universe.  And we’re not looking for miracles.  We’re not asking anybody to drop whatever you are doing and focus solely on the coming up with a cure for cancer; but who knows the world works on a ripple effect so your ten percent shift in effort could indirectly make that happen.  Or a slight adjustment in the next guy’s perspective could lead to figuring out a way to make fuel out of peanut butter and toothpicks.  Hey, you never know.

But, what I do know is that only good can come from us working to be better people, living in a better city and leading to a better planet.

If we work on the small, everyday things of life and maybe do them just a little bit better that by itself could create miracles.
