Steve Keil – A Play Manifesto

Play Manifesto is a social platform for sharing the importance of rediscovering and integrating integrating Play into our lives, our schools, and our work.

Play provides a sense of purpose, mastery, and fulfillment – motivating us to innovate and thrive in both educational and business environments.

Unfortunately, most educational systems and businesses believe that Play is the opposite of work, and should be driven out (rather than integrated).

Play Manifesto is driven by thinking that is backwards – it says the exact opposite is true: we should be celebrating Play, not eradicating it!

You Are Indispensable

If you’ve got the time, the intellect and the access to get your hands on an idea … then you have the ability to reinvent yourself. More people have more more chances and more power to change the world today, than at any other time in history.

Seth Godin’s new book, Linchpin: Are You Indispensable is out today, a very unusual manifesto about doing work that matters.

It will teach you how to spread your ideas and how to use the leverage the economy just gave all of us to make a difference and to have an impact. Here are  the seven levers, available to anyone ready to reinvent themselves for the New Times ahead:

1. Connect

2. Be generous

3. Make art

4. Acknowledge the lizard

5. Ship

6. Fail

7. Learn
