The Dodo Graveyard. Evolve or Die.


This is an open letter to myself on self-evolution. If you find something useful in it, then I wrote this for you as well...
If you work to maintain the status quo, the old way of doing things, you will experience your demise. Your demise might happen quickly but more than likely it will be a slow one—years full of disappointment and failure, maybe sprinkled in will be a few creature comforts.
But that is a self-imposed exile, a prison whose warden is fear and distrust. 
You have the power to change and to live in that fear. What is that fear by the way? Of failing? That no one will like you? That it won’t be good enough? My answer: so what. Everyone has failed at some point in their lives and gotten back up. Not everyone likes you (or me). And rarely is anything or everything good enough—just about every company has a return policy.Go out and learn a new skill, refine the quality of your services, set boundaries, keep in touch with old friends, change what it is you’re doing till it’s closest or is what you want to be doing and contributing to the person (or business) you want to be. Otherwise I’ll save a space for you in the Dodo graveyard.

We need your help! After a three year, sixty city tour we're bringing our "Little Engine that Could" The Gospel According to Josh back to the biggest stage in the world: New York City, Off-Broadway in May 2014. We're using the Off-Broadway run to raise awareness and funds for suicide prevention and mental health services. Please consider donating to our IndieGoGo campaign (HERE) to help bring this back to NYC and help save lives.
Please help me show the world that it's possible to fall down, to struggle, to come to the edge of hitting the self-destruct button... and to fight and claw your way back to find love, hope, health, and life.
I need your help! Donate HERE or consider sharing it with a friend or loved one. Every little bit of support counts!! Thank you!
