Daily Inspiration: “It’s when you master new, small skills that you know that one day, bigger opportunities might yet emerge!”

“It’s when you master new, small skills that you know that one day, bigger opportunities might yet emerge!” – Futurist Jim Carroll

The major excitement this weekend – aside from a brief taste of spring – was that I figured out how to do a multi-camera, split-screen, screen toggle and picture-in-picture setup in my home broadcast studio!

I’ll take that as a win right now!

I’ll put the video up on my blog after this post, but this seemingly small project provides big potential: it leads me to the point where I can easily support a professional level Skype interview from my studio, with, for example, a backdrop of my home city. (I’m actually in a suburban city next to Toronto, but why confuse things…)

Every project I take on seems to offer some new insight. The key lesson for me from this one?

Every little thing I do right now has the potential to be a bigger thing later on.

And so while my small family circle might laugh at the amount of time I spend on such a small effort, I know it will pay dividends in the long run!
