What if you were to take a step into the unknown? A step that frightened you so much it brought the sweats out in you but a step that might bring you to a new level, a level beyond your wildest dreams. What if the universe has been giving you reminders all along but you choose to ignore it because of being judged if it didn’t work out.
Sometimes we choose the safe path but is that path true to your calling here on earth. As Mark Twain famously wrote the two most important days in your life are “The day you are born and the day you find out why.” What if now is the time to find out why you are here?
What if you just stop racing, slowdown and listen for the answers. The answers are within to your questions, the answers have always been there but taking the time and listening is the key. You see the magic is within but you have to open the box for it to surface.
How many of our past great inventors started with the question what if this worked or that worked and true curiously they took the leap of faith and took it to the next level and eventually to fruition. How many people asked the same question never took the leap of faith and eventually brought it to the grave with them?
What if you start to question everyday things and not except the answers from the past which you lived by before? Outside the box thinking is a great way for personal growth and a great way to unleash us from the chains that our societies can sometimes hold us captive in.
What if you had the next hit song humming around in your head each day and your gut is telling you to take the next step but you keep questioning yourself that all that fairy-tale stuff doesn’t happen to me. The next time this happens quench that self-limiting thought and say what if the time is right now for my fairy-tale story.
What if you started to believe in yourself and that belief led to you to start chiselling back all the walls that hide the incredible, unique human being that lay fast asleep for so long? What if you started to like what you see and like what you are becoming?
What if you’re the next Olympian carrying the flag for your country on the open ceremony of the Olympics, the next Tiger Woods or the next Paul O Connell. You will never know the answer until you take the step into the unknown and back yourself.
What I say is have a go, take the leap of faith for you have nothing to lose, only many life gains, many new journeys and many new people to meet that might just change your life forever. What if you, yes you kicked fear in the shins and opened up the box to the future greatness that is you.
