You Might Like It
I like the “might”. It is not pushy or prescriptive. It doesn't promise nor is it assertive and overly confident like “will” is. It reduces the need for tension, push back or resistance. It removes the barrier to entry for anything you are contemplating.
It is exploratory and is leads with curiosity and wonder.
Look at these 2 questions;
What will you do versus what might you do?
How will you solve this problem versus how might you solve this problem?
One assumes you know the answer and the other encourages you to explore, to accept that you don't necessarily know without being defensive.
Based on that premise, today’s post is the lyrics of Jason Mraz’s song, You Might Like It. It's about life and living and trying, reducing the barriers that get in the way of us achieving the things we want in life by looking at it from the lenses of what might be if you tried.
You Might Like It- Jason Mraz
If you wanna be a dancer, just start dancing
If you wanna fly, then just take off
If you wanna let go, don't hold on
If you wanna see the world, just get lost
You could be the guy with all of the money
You could be the one who gives it away
You could be the keeper of the honey
But you might get stung along the way because
Living your dream is hard work
Go on and try it, you might like it (go on and try)
You might like it (go on and try)
Living your dream is hard work
Go on and try it, you might like it (go on and try)
You might like it
If you want something you never have
Do something you never done
You might have to break some rules
If you wanna have some fun
Call it a dream, call it a plan
I call it the reason that I am
Call it whatever, just call it in
It's never too late to be what you might've been
Living your dream is hard work
Go on and try it, you might like it (go on and try)
You might like it (go on and try)
Living your dream is hard work
Go on and try it, you might like it (go on and try)
Yeah, you might like it
Yeah, you might like it (go on and try)
Yeah, you might like it (go on and try)
Yeah, you might like it (go on and try)
Oh, you might like it (go on and try)
If you want love, let it be
If you want a friend, count on me
If you wanna see the world in harmony
Just stand up and make your peace
If you're looking for a song, just sing a long
If you wanna get off, turn it on
Just turn it on, turn it on
Turn it on, turn it on because
What you want wants you
What you want wants you
What you want wants you
Uh
What you want wants you
What you want wants you
What you want wants you
What you want? What you want? Watch you want? It wants you
And you might like it, you might like it
You might like it, you might like it
Or you might love it, uh
If you wanna get up, if you wanna get up
You might like it, you might like it
If you wanna get up, if you wanna get up
You might like it or you might like it
Or you might love it, or you might love it
The way I love it, I love it
Or you might love it or you might love it
The way I love it, I love it
You can listen here.
Keep going,
