Go!

HT to Michael Frost and Alan Hirsch’s “Shaping of things to come” for introducing me to this little poem:

Go to the people
Live with them
Learn from them
Love them
Start with what they know
Build with what they have
But with the best leaders,
When the work is done,
The task accomplished
The people will say 'We have done this ourselves!'

-Lao Tsu (700 BC)
