The conventional way you used to make your mark on the world was to be exceptional or exceptionally lucky and end up being in a band, writing a seminal book, being very successful or simply murdering a few people and then getting caught.
Of course you can make your mark at a personal level and live a good life, raise some kids and all that but for the purposes of this blog I'm talking really make your mark in a way that secures your place in the annals of history, whatever they are. For every major mark maker there are countless others equally capable of making the same mark but for whatever reason don't register on our radar screens. Only the chosen few manage to break through the ranks in order to be able to speak to a million people at once. For that alone they should be recognised. Today any clown with a phone line can make their mark.
George Harrison. Peace dude.
