Can you imagine not doing what you're
doing in your life right now, but doing
something completely different?
Something exciting, fun, even risky,
like quitting your job and traveling
around the world. Or working
part-time and going to school full time
to study scuba diving or basket weaving.
Or owning your own home, business, plane
or boat. If you can imagine it,
why aren't you doing it? I'll tell
you why. Because the moment you
think about it, you think about all the
reasons you can't. "How will I pay
my bills?" "Who will take care of
my family?" "Where will I get
money?" "What will people say?"
Well, here's another question for you,
How do you ever expect to be happy or at
peace if you stay where you are?
If you don't allow yourself to dream, to
dare, to move up, out, forward; how will
you ever know what you are really
capable of? Look at it this way,
what's the worse that can happen?
You could end up right where you
started, doing exactly what you are
doing.
