I’m currently reading Douglas Coupland’s Microserfs. A line in the book really struck a chord with me. It read “Q: If there were two of you, which one would win?”
It’s a goofy little question. There’s no real answer to it, but at the same time the question struck me as profound.
Am I doing as much as I could to benefit myself and those in my life? I’m proud of nearly everything I do. But if I had a doppelganger, could he figure out how to do more? And do it better, faster and stronger? It gets me thinking…
How about you? Have you read Microserfs? Did this question stand out for you too?
