I haven't posted something like this in a hot minute, so without further adieu, I give you a few words to get you through your week...
A ship is safe in harbor, but that is not what ships are for. - William Shedd
-------------
Progress always involves risks. You can't steal second base and keep your foot on first. - Frederick B. Wilcox
-------------
Why not go out on a limb? Isn't that where the fruit is? - Frank Scully
-------------
This nation was built by men who took risks - pioneers who were not afraid of the wilderness, business men who were not afraid of failure, scientists who were not afraid of the truth, thinkers who were not afraid of progress, dreamers who were not afraid of action. - Brooks Atkinson
-------------
One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time. - Andre Gide
-------------
Living at risk is jumping off the cliff and building your wings on the way down. - Ray Bradbury
-------------
Risk more than others think is safe. Care more than others think is wise. Dream more than others think is practical. Expect more than others think is possible. - Cadet Maxim
-------------
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. - Mark Twain
-------------
Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart. - Confuscius
-------------
I think we all sometimes cower in fear of actual success. We run from opportunities, even when we swear we don't. Sometimes it's much easier to say "what if" than to just accept than we may actually succeed. I'm gulity, and I bet you are, too. Let's change that. Let's reinvent the way we look at not only opportunity, but ourselves.
What is the biggest risk you've ever taken? How did it work out for you? Did you learn anything?
xoxo
