Daily Lesson in Madness Part Deux

In so many aspects of life, confidence can be your key to success. Be it pursuing a job, getting the girl, or picking out the right cat litter, confidence in yourself can go a long way. Now I'm not advocating you be cocky and self-absorbed. Nay, I am merely saying that in this hunt for the Madness Maker position, I really believe that I fit, not only the professional, but the more undefinable characteristics of the posting as well. It's about being proud in your skillz (<-- RAD!) and just being the best Madness Maker that you know how to be. As my good friend Stuart Smalley once said

"I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and Gosh Darnit, people like me."

To be honest, Stuart Smalley was a guess. I also had a doubt that it may have actually been the "Set it, and forget it" guy from those infomercials. Anywho, the point is people, this whole ride was really just started as one more hopeful attempt to prove that I'm right for the People's Republic of Moosejaw.

As I said yesterday, when I see little inspirations, I want to share them with my readers to hopefully pass on the knowledge that those fine role models have passed down to me.

For today's topic, I wanted someone that could really illustrate what it means to be confident. I wanted someone who walks with purpose and knows that he has the skills to pay the bills. Now I know what you're thinking... and you're exactly right! It is Sho'Nuff, the Shogun of Harlem from the 1985 Oscar Award-Winning tale The Last Dragon. Mr. Nuff can walk into a room like he owns the place, but not because he's cocky. He is able to do this because it is clear from his outfit and shutter shades that he actually IS the man. So, whether it be a Madness Maker position, or the risk of being confident enough to buy Mr. Pibb instead of Dr. Pepper, stand tall. If the question comes up about whether or not you're the man for the job, answer with a resounding "SHO NUFF!"
