Stretch your mind
When Nicolau Coelho in his role as captain commanded one of the ships in Pedro Álvares Cabral's fleet, he had no idea that he would be discovering Brazil.
Bound for West Africa on the caravel Berrio, he discovered the sea route to India together with Vasco Da Gama. He nonetheless knew that he was undergoing the hardships of life at sea because he would be charting territory for the generations to come. The map of the world since then has significantly shaped global thinking and the possibilities there are in trade, pushing out the boudaries people of his time had set for themselves.
For everyone thereafter to travel the seven seas was merely a following in his steps. Yet, he lost his brother Paulo Coelho upon his return in Lisbon, a large price to pay for the accomplishment of large ideas.
Getting small ideas into big minds is no challenge. The challenge starts when you make it a goal to get large ideas into small minds.
Let's contribute to a global mind-stretching exersize by adding to the size of our ideas and share them with others helping them to overcome their own limitations and understand that they are only as limited as they think they are and that the only barrier are those they set for themselves.
Make yours a sparkling day!
