Context:
What would a world look like where we can be inspired by every person?
Usually we are very quick to compare and judge ourselves and others, and when we do that everybody is losing. Depending on my point of view, I can either feel small because I come out lacking; or arrogant and dismissive because I feel superior. Those are the only 2 options. And neither of those options make us feel good
Here is our thought: Someone's everyday normal is someone else's extraordinary. Judgment comes from first impressions. We invite you, the listener, to go beyond first impressions, and see the magic everywhere.
There is inspiration at every corner - in everyone, if we are willing to look.
