We blog about and talk about the one in a million YouTube viral sensation, the breakthrough that came out of nowhere overnight. But that's not a plan…  

A plan involves steps that are largely under your influence and control. A plan involves the hard and dreary and difficult work of a thousand brave steps, of doing things that might not work, of connecting and caring and bringing generosity when we don't think we have any more to bring."from [Seth's Blog](http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths%5Fblog/2013/06/sure-but-thats-not-a-plan.html??ref=hypebot.com)
