An Idea is Born

Ladies, gentlemen, scholars, blue collar workers, doctors, scientists, retail cashiers, waiters, waitresses, CEOs, CFOs, citizens of the world, anyone with a mind of their own:

I'm challenging you to DO SOMETHING INCREDIBLE. Exhibit creativity, intelligence, and benevolence to your fellow human being.

Inspire. Let a contagious greatness bleed through your veins and spill into the air. Let it spread amongst every docile mind, every honest soul.

Get up, stand up, rise. DO SOMETHING INCREDIBLE.

Commit random acts of kindness, smile at a stranger, volunteer, help someone in need, pick up litter, flood the air with music. DO SOMETHING INCREDIBLE.

No matter how small it is, no matter how big it is, no matter how quick it is, no matter how long it takes, DO SOMETHING INCREDIBLE.

I believe in the capacity for every human being to commit an act of greatness. I believe everyone, together, can shape the world into something great. We can overpower the ugliness that so readily superfluously pollutes our world. We can all DO SOMETHING INCREDIBLE.

There is no limit to the greatness that we can afflict upon our surroundings. There's no reason to wait, there's no reason to procrastinate. Get up now and DO SOMETHING INCREDIBLE.
