Be Daring
Do you know the feeling of watching someone who’s about to attempt something dangerous?
You notice the sweat bead on their foreheads as they prepare. Everything around them is being tested, primed, pumped, and prepared for their feat – all of it in slow motion.
Anticipation builds.
As time counts down, everyone moves to the edge of their seat. Will they succeed? Will they fail? The more at stake, the greater the anticipation.
Then finally, they’re off!
At this point, no matter what happens, that person has done something remarkable. They have dreamt and done. They have wondered and attempted. They have seen and dared.
As we watch these people and events, we become curious, “could that be me?”
The only thing stopping us from daring, is never moving past that question. We examine it like a priceless piece of art, when really, that question is nothing more than the beginning of the amazing exhibition that is the rest of our lives.
So, go ahead. Try something grand. I dare you.
And, if you do it, you’ll be daring us.
