From Gus - The Possibility Hunter

Suffering from Olympic withdrawal? Did those elite athletes pushing the envelope of human ability inspire you to push your own little envelope a bit more? Did the valiant competitors who lost honorably inspire you to try a little bit more? Fail a little bit more? Err, I mean compete a little more honorably? Me too.

Sadly, it’s all over. Yep, TV has returned to its usual self. (Sigh.) So, as the civilized world has done since the dawn of time (1999) we turn our attention back to our RSS feeds and YouTube looking for that spark of inspiration.

I recommend Curious? Read and its post “The Five Most Inspirational Videos on YouTube.” It’s good and it saves a lot of YouTube trawling. At first glance the videos may not seem like obvious choices (Will Smith? But I’m always inspired to get jiggy!) but when you get into them… As the disclaimer on the post says:

“Play these as needed. Warning: you might be inspired to greatness, so use with caution.”

What, not great yet? Maybe you need to revisit the in-house inspirational movies and tickets to greatness, the Eight Irresistible principles of Fun, and the 5.75 Questions you’ve been avoiding.
