The road of life lays before all of us. Every day we make a thousand choices that prove the direction of our lives. Will we dare to be courageous and strive to make the most of every moment? Or will we hide and play it safe? Or will we quit?
Life is lived in the parameters of these questions. And regardless of what our mouths may say, we answer each one with every action we take.
Will you dare to dream? Will you dare to take the risk?
Power is given only to him who dares to stoop and take it … one must have the courage to dare.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
For many of us, we stopped dreaming at the end of our childhood, as adulthood and pressure and stress stole away those dreams. Responsibilities pile up and we make a choice.
I dare do all that may become a man; who dares do more, is none.
William Shakespeare, Macbeth
It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare, it is because we do not dare that they are difficult.
Seneca
It’s not too late. It never has been. There is never too much responsibility or life or distraction to stop someone from daring to dream.
Will it be hard? Possibly. Most every thing worth anything will be worth the price paid in time, sweat, blood and tears. Anything worthwhile will require no less.
So, let’s go. Let the adventure begin. Don’t settle. This life is too beautiful and big to limit ourselves to surviving when we were created to thrive.
The sky isn’t the limit, it’s just the beginning.
