but when it comes down to it, most of us are deeply uncomfortable with change.
The tragedy of life is not so much what we suffer, but rather what we miss. —THOMAS CARLYLE
The great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do. —WALTER BAGEHOT
“Whatever your dreams are, start taking them very, very seriously.”
• What needs can you meet? • Who looks to you as a leader? • What bothers you about the world? • How can you make things better? • What can you offer the world that no one else can?
“It is not the decision you make that is most important; it is the degree of commitment with which you make the decision.”
Most remarkable people are not remarkable by nature. Instead, they made a few key choices along the way that helped them overcome their fears.
Asking yourself “What’s the worst thing that can happen?” helps to put big decisions in perspective.
Instead, you need to change the way you interpret events, and then take action to change your circumstances.
“What do you really want to get out of life?” and “What can you offer the world that no one else can?” Whatever your answers to those questions are, you can likely find the beginnings of your quest to live a full life and make the world a better place for others.
