I recently came across this Diesel ad and I felt compelled to share it. I mostly like this piece because it has some cool points about smart vs. stupid, but the song is pretty cool too. I think ideas like this serve as a reminder to step back and take a minute to be easy on yourself and try something your scared of. If you never leave your comfort zone you’ll never learn anything…

And with that, I present The Official Be Stupid Philosophy by Diesel

And if you wanted to read it through (or you’re a Google bot), I transcribed it…

Like balloons, we are filled with hope and dreams

But over time a single sentence creeps into our lives…

Don’t be stupid

It’s the crusher of possibility

It’s the world’s greatest deflator

The world is full of smart people

Doing all sorts of smart things

That’s smart

Well, we’re with stupid

Stupid is the relentless pursuit of a regret free life

Smart may have the brains but stupid has the balls

Smart recognizes things for how they are

Stupid sees things for how they could be

Smart critiques

Stupid creates

The fact is, if we don’t have stupid thoughts

We have no interesting thoughts at all

Smart may have the plans…

But stupid has the stories.

Smart may have the authority

But stupid has one hell of a hangover

It’s not smart to take risks, It’s stupid

To be stupid is to be brave

Stupid isn’t afraid to fail.

Stupid knows there are worse things than failure…

Like not even trying

Smart had one good idea

And that idea was stupid

You can’t outsmart stupid

So don’t even try

Remember only stupid can be truly brilliant

So, be stupid!
