“Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience.”
Paulo Coelho
Success of any kind takes risks, it means putting yourself on the line and risking failure in order to better yourself and your life.
Leo Buscaglia once said ‘The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing and becomes nothing’ and he’s not far from the mark, because those individual who spend their entire lives living inside their comfort zone never taking the risk to step outside it (and we all know people like that), end up achieving very little worthwhile with their time here on earth.
If you have great dreams, accept the fact that great dreams take great risk, but what is the greater risk, to put it all on the line and possibly fall short, or to risk nothing and have your life stand out not as an example to others as to how to live greatly, but as a warning on how not to waste this precious gift we call life?
Ask yourself today, ‘Am I willing to risk falling short and ‘failing’ in order to achieve my deepest dreams?’
Live Life Large!
