Thought for the day by Charles Handy on how to live life successfully and make a difference in the world. Handy begins the thought discussing spectator sports and how he does not particularly enjoy them. He goes on to discuss the life of William Morris, and how Morris's pursuing his goals contributed to his being known in the world through his work, before quoting Ralph Waldo Emerson on what it means to live a full and meaningful life. Handy then concludes his reflection stating that life is for living, not spectating.
