Are You Scared?

mountainIf you are not scared about what tomorrow will bring, then you are not living up to your potential. That’s right. If you feel cozy, comfortable and content then you are not achieving all that you could do.

Some of you are probably shaken up by that thought, and most of you are thinking too small. If you could be best in the world at one thing, what would you choose? I hope none of you answered “television watcher”, because even if you were the best, no one would notice.

So whatever you did choose, are you working towards it? Are you aspiring to be the best you can be at the one thing you would like to be the best at? Are you sacrificing to make your dream come true?

John Maxwell explains in The Law of Sacrifice, that you must give up to go up. Success is not gained without a price. Only you can decide the cost you are willing to pay for your dream.

It is 2014, and it is time to:

  1. Follow your passion
  2. Think big
  3. Do it scared
  4. Learn from your mistakes as you go
  5. Carry on relentlessly
  6. Live up to your potential

It is okay to be scared. If you are going to achieve your dream, you will need to go into the unknown where it is uncomfortable. Great! Now that we have that settled, let’s get started.
