In New York City on the corner of 6th Avenue and 14th Street is a bookstore, a bookstore that sells spiritual items, mostly from the east, things like singing bowls. And if you go there you'll notice that

they have dozens and dozens of different kinds of singing bowls all handmade

from all over the world. And what you might notice is that most of them look exactly the same.

Hey, it's Seth, and this is from our sponsor.

We'll be back in a second after this message from our sponsor.

Hey, it's Seth here with big news about a new workshop, the Creative Workshop, a workshop for people who are creative for a living who seek to find their voice

spread their idea and maybe even get paid for it. It features interviews with me and people like Sirilla May or Christian McBride, but more

We will help you find your voice. Check out the Creatives Workshop.com. It's a year in the making.

the length of that big long bridge. It turns out that making a big leap with a bridge

is difficult indeed. That if we're willing to do lots of little steps, we can build a bridge for as long as we want.

But to do it all in one leap, that's difficult.

A scholar named Joseph Overton died young just 43 years old, killed in a tragic airplane accident.

But before he died, he coined something called the Overton Window, and the Overton Window is a simple idea that needed a name.

And basically what it says is that regardless of how a politician feels personally, there are limits as to what he or she can
