Think Small

Big oil, big government, big guns, big shots, big deal. What's so great about Big? What's wrong with small?

Big things are made out of infinitesimally small particles. Big achievements consist of ten thousand momentary tasks. Big discoveries happen, not because discoverers think big, but because they pay careful attention to little details. Carl Sagan once said that Einstein made monumental breakthroughs in physics because he asked very very simple questions.

The world can't afford Big any more. When we all do our small chosen tasks with devotion, greatness will happen by itself.
