George Bernard Shaw quote from "Maxims for Revolutionists", Man and Superman (1903): "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man."

You might believe that pioneers, explorers, inventors and other non-conformists would all be unreasonable.  They may lead lives that go against your views of what is safe, possible, desirable, comfortable or comptible with your conditioning or genetics.  

Upon closer look, people viewed as unreasonable are the sort who "rock the boat,"  raise a standard, shatter a myth, challenge the status quo, and encourage others to stretch ther perception and imagination.  Take a look at three reasons to review 'unreasonable':

1) What do you gain from being unreasonable in your life?

2) How has hearing about unreasonable people affected positive change your life?

3) Why could they be some of your most powerful teachers and motivators?
