I want to be awesome. I want -you- to be awesome.

The guys whose vision is (for NZ) to be rich have it all wrong. We don't punch above our weight* internationally because we're rich. There are ex-pat New Zealanders at the highest levels of companies and organisations around the world because despite our tall-poppy issues** we breed awesome.

*reportedly
**mythical/legendary

Being awesome is far harder to measure as a goal than $ and cents, but isn't it a far greater vision for a country?

Go on. Be awesome. Encourage and support everyone around you to be awesome. Let's see what we achieve.

This post is partially dedicated to [livejournal.com profile] lenfant_de_jeu and her teams, who I hear brought the awesome at the chorus competitions this weekend ;)
