I worry about neighborhoods that stop developing and growing because of the togetherness it forges with people. Consider the togetherness experienced by students moving in the dorm together or a round of families moving into a new neighborhood at the same time because it was just built.
Or consider the power of workshops Seth Godin puts on or bootcamps by your local fitness facility.
The power of getting a group to be in something together is undeniable.
Which begs the question if you’re creating those moments or not?
It’s quite easy to be passive, a cog, and do the work to spec and hand it off to the next person.
The reward is minimal, though, too.
