On Being Inspired in a Team

by Oct 12, 20110 comments

In Keith Richards recent autobiography entitled, “Life”, he writes about what it feels like to be inspired as part of a team that is one of the greatest in history – The Rolling Stones. He writes, “There’s a certain moment when you realize that you’ve actually just left the planet for a bit and that nobody can touch you. You’re elevated because you’re with a bunch of guys that want to do the same thing as you. And when it works, baby, you’ve got wings”. You are, he suggests, “flying without a license.”

How often can you say you are so engaged in activities that inspire you, that you are “flying without a license”?  And if the answer is seldom, what is holding you back?  How do you ensure that you do not die with your music still inside you?  Here is a way to help you find your Calling.
