Insight on Today's Quote
We don’t usually grow when we’re comfortable. Most of the important things that happened to us didn’t start out as sure things. They started with a little “yes,” some courage, and a lot of things they didn’t know.
Today is another chance for us to get involved in life instead of just watching. The world doesn’t expect us to be perfect; it just wants us to take part.
Step Up To The Challenge
Do something that makes you a little uncomfortable but is important. It doesn’t have to be big. Just send the message you’ve been putting off, start the task you’ve been putting off, or take the first step toward something you’ve been thinking about for too long.
Small acts of bravery build up speed, and speed leads to change.
