Be Willing To Make Mistakes

If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough. – Vince Lombardi

If you’re not making mistakes:

you’re playing it safe;

you’re playing small;

you’re not using all your talents and abilities;

you’re wasting the gift that is your life;

you’re living in a way that you’ll feel guilty about later;

you’re . . .

*  *  *

Go ahead and make some mistakes.

Be willing to fail.

Start small, learn to tight-rope walk a foot off the ground, you can always do it across the Grand Canyon later.

Make sure your mistakes serve you: be clear about where you want to go and what you want to create.

Do more, that’s how you become more – mistakes are part of the game.
