Michael was featured as a guest the on the season three opener of the Polymath Podcast with Dustin Miller. They talk about the book “Manifestos, Reinventions and Declarations,” the constant struggle to find inspiration, and allowing yourself to have bad days. Take a listen!

“The Desk is the Yoga Mat”

“Manifestos, Reinventions & Declarations is a commentary on this unprecedented moment in history. This is a book about Now. The New Now we’re living in and going through. We’re living in a time when a day can feel like it goes on forever. And since billions of us are going through the same experience at the exact same moment in history, we can all be shifting the world culture together.”

Michael’s 3 Principles in life:

1. It gets harder as you get older, but you have to keep looking for inspiration, those moments of magic, allow yourself to be emotionally moved by art… whether it be a movie, music, a painting or a video game.
2. It’s important to be brilliant and be quick, but allow yourself the necessary time and space to be creative when it counts.
3. You accumulate thousands of good days and bad days, the trick is to have a few more good ones than bad ones.

With a global pandemic rolling across and ravaging our land, we can more easily understand how historic and pre-historic events actually happened. Now, with deeply embedded wrongheaded cultural norms being pushed against as never before, we can also understand how societal shifts sometimes happened in past centuries, within months, days, or hours, or when a tipping point was finally reached.
