Instigation Giveaway: "Poke the Box" by Seth Godin

The world needs you to instigate something, to take your big dream and share it with the world in a way that inspires, motivates, and makes a difference. And that's why we're giving away a hardback copy of Poke the Box by Seth Godin. This manifesto is sure to inspire you to try something new, take a different path, and change the world in the process.

From the inside flap:

We send our kids to school and obsess about their test scores, their behavior and their ability to fit in.

We post a help wanted ad and look for experience, famous colleges and a history of avoiding failure.

We invest in compaies based on how they did last quarter, not on what they're going to do tomorrow.

So why are we surprised when it all falls apart?

Our economy is not static, but we act as if it is. Your position in the world is defined by what you instigate, how you provoke, and what you learn from the events you cause. In a world filled with change, that's what matters - your ability to create and learn from change.

Poke the Box is a manifesto about producing something that's scarce, and thus valuable. It demands that you stop waiting for a road map and start drawing one instead. You know how to do this, you've done it before, but along the way, someone talked you out of it.

We need your insight and your dreams and your contributions. Hurry.
