Fear and doing nothing

quote
In discomfort now.

Fear and doing nothing.

What if?

Right?

What if something goes terribly wrong?

Work hard to mitigate risk. Work hard to create “worst case” scenarios so you can determine your recovery options and loss prevention options.

If we don’t, we become a prisoner to fear, a bird in a cage so to speak, never free to fly.

Risk taking is key to transformational change

 

Risk taking is key to transformational change.

Kathrine Switzer, the first woman to run Boston faced a tough challenge – she wasn’t invited, she wasn’t welcomed, and some wanted her out, immediately.

What Kathrine did became a catalyst for what five years later was a transformational change in the Boston Marathon’s policy of “men only”.

Kathrine’s courage, and continued advocacy, eventually led to including a women’s marathon race in the Olympic Games.

Nearly 40 pounds of gear between the two backpacks.

 

Disney Keynote Speaker
The thought of not bicycling 29 miles roundtrip almost won.

 

two back packs and a bike
Four miles into it, the sweat i swore i would avoid caused me to take a five-minute break.

The iconic golf cart bridge along State Road 535 just south of the Buena Vista Drive intersection.

After a long bike ride to the gym (and an hour there) and back, i sat on a float in our pool…because i could.

 

If you knew you couldn’t fail, what would you do for your health?

Look away

Disney Business Books author jeff noel
Write like you mean it either means it’s something you actually do, or it’s a theory for “someday”.

 

You will find your solution to staying active, if you are willing to look where you haven’t yet looked.
