Closer

“With only six degrees of separation or less between you and the rest of the world, why haven’t you contacted the people who could help you achieve your goals and dreams?” wrote Jennifer Gresham in her Everyday Courage challenge email today.
I’ve been thinking about these six degrees of separation recently, when I realized there are less than 4 degrees of separation between me and the Dalai Lama (3), Brad Pitt (2), Marion Cotillard (2), Leonardo DiCaprio (3) or Bruce Willis (2). Working in the Swiss film industry certainly explains it, but not necessarily. For example, I’ve volunteered at a music festival last Summer, where I met Maxim Nucci, who’s a good friend of Marion Cotillard, who worked with Leonardo DiCaprio.
Most of the time, people are closer than they appear…
… and goals are easier to achieve than you think.
