Enjoy the Ride.

Success requires the risk of uncertainty, possible humiliation and (dare I say it?) momentary failure. There are times when one wishes for predictable, calm waters where everything unfolds according to plan. This would eliminate the possibilities for personal growth and the reward of unexpected possibility. Adventure, excitement and vitality are the result of venturing where one has never before traveled, embracing the unknown and enjoying the "ride."

I invite you to consider living a life less ordinary. Rather than evaluating your success on results alone, what if you were to give yourself bonus points for the courage to risk something new?

Today, break the mold. Step outside of your routine and walk a road that you have yet to travel. Begin with the simple things that have become a matter of habit. Eat something different for breakfast, take a new route to work, go to a new and unusual restaurant for lunch, speak to a stranger--do the things that you would not ordinarily do. Live boldly, courageously and without apology!

Success or sabotage? Are you willing to broaden your scope of success by stretching to new levels of comfort?

Is this going to be an incredible day? Until you are willing to risk the "ruin" of the entire day, you will have no idea of the true potential and possibility.
