Hey Auburn! Looking for a Nanny?

Lets talk hypothetically for a moment, shall we?

Say that the institution of Auburn University, a public college of 25,000 students located in East Alabama (rivaled in athletics by The University of Alabama), miraculously gave birth to a humanoid infant. Meaning, the vagina that is Auburn pooped out a kid. On the day of that child's birth, I would kidnap it.

Leading up to the abduction, a cave would have been carved out deep into an aged collection of human waste. Inside this cave, a little room would have been dug out and sealed shut.

I would bring this child to my cave, inside my little room. Set in place would be a wooden slab for a bed, an IV, and a stereo system.

For the rest of its life (hopefully a long life), the child would be fed via the IV using only the most basic survival formula available. For kicks, maybe throw in a few hallucinogenics for the holidays. Screaming through the stereo would be nothing but sounds you might hear during Halloween, or film sound effects, or some senseless, noisy art music rarely enjoyed.

The child would never know its mother, father, siblings, or schoolmates. The child would never see the sun. The child would never drink nor feel water. The child would never taste food. All the child would know is filth, pain, and fear.

It IS that deep this year.

Roll Tide Roll. Destroy their faces.

As The Worlds Collide

Sure, there is something to say about organization. To have things in order saves time. To have structure allows for more fluid communication. Veteran institutions survive because of the success of those who participate. Loyalty carries traditions for centuries, which aid in community relations, morale, perhaps even boost an economy.

But in an evolving globe, unpredictable behavior is a characteristic yearned for by the current entrepreneurs. They want to implement the next big idea; to construct the new formula; to invent; to build the next power house corporation.

The goals are universally similar and so is the path to success. But that path could be the reason we have seen a decline in entrepreneurship. Instructions on how to succeed are taught during our education, along with the manners that are expected, a suggested (and often regulated) appearance, and the governed laws to abide by.

Those who set aside these foundations shall be the ones who define their own success. We should explore all the opportunities, and not just the ones conserved. Within the laws of society, we should live as no one else has lived before. Stay unpredictable. Remain an individual. Ride the inspiration. But lastly, trust your guts.

There is a reason that an erratic existence is usually more appealing to the masses – it will always be out with the old and in with the new.
