Never wonder "What if...?" - Make the Jump

Today I was inspired by a quote that we can all relate to.

It reads: “Its hard to wait around for something you know might never happen; but its harder to give up when you know its everything you want.” - Unknown

Now I ask...Why do we give up so easily? We all do it and it is the more difficult, scathing decision - We begin to regret. Is it because we are scared of failing or because our past experiences influence our decisions daily? One can want something indefinitely but despite their desires, they will turn their backs on it. I believe the culprit is fear - and fear is failure.

Fear to fail
      Fear to fall
            Fear to falter

One can't forestall because of their fears. We only have one life to live and we choose our paths for the future. We cannot wait around for thing to just happen; Make things happen.
“It’s better to have tried and failed than to live life wondering what would’ve happened if I had tried” – Alfred Lord Tennyson ...BUT SAYS YOU ARE GOING TO FAIL.

My challenge for you is to do something you have always wanted to do. Pull out your bucket list or be spontaneous. One must not anticipate failure. One must take life by the horns and charge onward! You may just surprise yourself.

  1. This has inspired me to take that proverbial leap. I'm not sure which side of whatever horn I'll take hold of first, but once I do, I'm going to hang on and enjoy the ride as long as I can. Welcome!
