A little courage!
Are you ever lulled into taking the same, safe paths over and over?Do you spend time looking for new challenges, fresh approaches, and daring adventures to live or do you stick with what you know? Have you ever noticed anything odd, strange, or new that was both intriguing and scary?
How do you respond to the unknown and unfamiliar?
In the short video below, you'll see a grown man experience his first escalator ride. I doubt he walked into his day thinking about mustering some courage to do his shopping, but that's exactly what happened.
See for yourself...
I don't know what the day holds for you, but chances are if you look around, you'll have the opportunity to stretch, to grow, to demonstrate a little courage.
Sure, you won't need to jump from space, but you may need to have a tough conversation, or initiate a project, or create something. All of which require courage.
“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.” - Eric Roth
Don't be afraid. Jump on your own version of an escalator.
