Monday Motivation-Still Weighing Your Options?

"Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must first be overcome."

Planning, developing strategy, thinking things through, learning from experience – all these things are good and right and important – but not everything can be planned and accounted for ahead of time. There is a reason we admire the risk takers and innovators. Someone has to be first; someone has to be brave and try new things so the rest of us can see and know what is possible.

Even if you aren’t blazing a new path for the rest of the world, you may need a little courage to try something new for yourself. Most of us are concrete learners, which is just another way of saying we learn the hard way – through failure. That’s OK. Just remember that it is action that propels us forward, not perfection.
