We were not awarded the gift of life for the purposes of mere existence. We were meant to live. This means that our continuous quest for sustained comfort and security may be largely misguided. 

In order to enliven all of your senses and discover your full power and potential, you must be willing to risk missteps, failure, and humiliation. You must set your ego aside and say "yes" to an adventure that has an unpredictable ending (realizing that it is more about the journey than the destination).

What is the risk that you are not taking? In what ways have you surrendered your appetite for discovery for the comfort of routine? Remember, there are few in their final days of life that wished that they had lived smaller.

Consider approaching your day as if you have slipped on a new persona. This person is not tempered by fear and lives for the thrill of new experiences. Dress, speak and act like the hero of your own story. Be the one that refuses to surrender. Be the one that sees all apparent obstacles as unexplored opportunities. Be the one that sings aloud without apology. Be YOU, the one that is desperately trying to escape the confines of your perceived fears and fragile ego.

Success or sabotage?  In order to attract and retain true success, you must be willing to accept all circumstances as fruitful, necessary and enriching to your life experience (wisdom that can be utilized to create more effective strategies).

Is this going to be an incredible day? Life is not for the weary or faint-hearted. Your rewards are in direct correlation to your risk. Go big or go home!
