Pub trail run like The World's End

Why don't pubs everywhere do a tie up and have a trail run like in the movie The World's End?

Promote it all over the town, have posters of it all over the pubs, mention it in the QR menu. Ask patrons each time one gets seated if they're doing the trail run and get them interested in doing it.

Get the trail run included in online publications, blogs, travel forums, and promote the heck out of it.

Win-win for all pubs in the area.

formula for success

part luck + part privilege + part hard work + part talent

Luck and talent cannot be controlled

Privilege can be influenced or bought

That's why we focus on hard work

But if we don't succeed, it's not always because we didn't work hard enough

And actually it's almost always luck

humility and generosity

Humility is acknowledging your weaknesses, not denying your strengths

Generosity is elevating others, not diminishing yourself

everybody's a creative

Anyone can be creative and come up with ideas

But real creatives come up with ideas and own the ideas

Execute and own the execution

Take feedback without taking it personally and then make changes to fit the bill

This takes training and hardwork

This takes dedication and persistence

Go ahead and call yourself a creative but don't forget to do all these things

voting, elections, demo cracy

If we argue that by not participating in elections, we're making a statement that we reject the political system and we don't even want to take part in the system, we're being stupid

We're already a part of the political system, politics pervades the society and us

Elections give us a chance to influence the system

By not voting, you're making yourself more powerless

forget her

Have you forgotten her yet?

"Not yet." replies the prisoner, just like yesterday and the day before and the day before that.

"Then you'll stay here till you do. I'll come back tomorrow."

The prisoner laughs, just like yesterday and the day before that and the day before that.

Adulting

We become adults when we stop blaming others for our problems

skipping months

Days turn into weeks, weeks into years I skipped months, spent wiping off my tears
