Poke the Box by Seth Godin

Poke the Box was a very short book, but it once again came back the many of themes explored by Sir Ken Robinson. It talks about how the only way to make a difference or to do something great is to take a risk- to poke the box and see what happens. It encourages readers to take the initiative to stand up for their ideas and move forward, working against the desire not to take risks that has been instilled in everyone since childhood. This is an important message that I struggle with, so I use this book as a sort of self-help: tiny doses of inspiration and encouragement when I need them.
