The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is timed right for the New Year's Resolution crowd of daydreamers that fashion a new life with the new calendar year. If a calendar can kick you in the ass, awesome.
Kicking ass is a 365-days-a-year adventure. I don't think waiting for a date on a calendar makes great things happen. 2014 should prove to be a breakout year for many people I know. Sharing the stories, spreading stories, and finding conspirators willing to help make dreams realities helps make it happen. It comes from having an open-mind that adjusts and pivots when necessary, pressing on at every turn. It comes from doing.
I think we all have a Walter Mitty hanging on- daydreaming of some fantastic adventure. A life without a dream is hardly a life. But get off your ass and make some awesome things happen.
About Walter Mitty: The book, though short, speaks volumes. You should read it, The movie was amazing, you should see it. And the sound track wss beyond awesome. José González is easily my top listens on Spotify.
