I believe that everyone has remarkable in them but that it takes finding something they truly care about to draw it out. You can’t be remarkable if you don’t love your environment, your tools, and your domain. Before I had my spark lit with 37signals and Ruby on Rails, I went through a series of jobs and gigs that certainly wouldn’t fit the bill as remarkable. I was treading water and just letting one day eat the next. Before I knew it, six months were gone, and I didn’t have anything to show for it
