“Risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing” – Leo Buscaglia
Leo Buscaglia, one of my favorite motivational authors! It’s so tempting to play it safe, isn’t it? Much easier to walk the known path than to put yourself out there in the open and risk failure … ridicule. But what is the reward? More of the same. Ho-hum. Mediocrity. I don’t think we were put on this earth to play it safe. I’m pretty sure our purpose here is to let our freak flag fly! Take a risk. Do what only YOU can do! Is it easy? No. But nothing worth doing is ever easy.

– Just MAKE!

I’m here. I’m ready. Or at least um ready enough to try. I might fail. I might, no likely will, mess up. It may take awhile to get anywhere, but I’m willing to try.
I have a couple of these try goals for this year. So far, I’m hanging on to the planning while also making (slow) progress, yet I’m still moving forward. 🙂

The most important thing is to keep on trucking, right? Do the best we can while we are here. 🙂
