You hear a sound and it catches your attention. Above the steady drone of the furnace fan and the show on TV, and in spite of the kids playing loudly in the other room, you hear this faint sound. It causes you to stop what you are doing and search. You look to find out where it is coming from because you want to discover what it is. And the reason it so easily grabs your ear is that it is new--a sound unlike the others that fill your ears every day.
Have you ever heard a sound like that? It can wake you up from a deep sleep and turn your head in a crowded room.
We can learn a lot from a new sound. It doesn't have to be obnoxious or loud. It doesn't have to be fashioned by a research team or approved by the majority. It simply has to be different--something new, unique, and clearly distinguishable from the noise that is all around.
So what is the sound that you were created to make today? It can be as subtle as a pin drop and still a roaring freight train cannot hinder its impact. It's your sound, your mark, your special contribution to the world.
