Living (and loving) Life

Here’s an interesting (and fun) hypothetical for you to consider…

You apply for a very dangerous and difficult job that pays an enormous amount of money for the relatively short time you’ll have to spend working on it.

The job will take 30 days to complete and you’ll receive your pay in cash when the job is finished at the end of day 30.

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.”
     -–Steve Jobs

Have you ever seen a parent try to coach their child’s Little League team from the bleachers, and attempt to influence or even over-ride the decisions of the coach?

“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”
             -–Thomas A. Edison


Do you tend to get frustrated and give up when you try something new and end up failing miserably at it?

If so, you’re certainly not alone. Most everyone fails at something on occasion, and I’ve probably failed at more endeavors than most people will ever try.

Like it or not, failure is just a part of life for us human beings.  [Read more…]
