The late, great, Ray Charles said “Live everyday as if it’s your last, because one day you’re going to be right.” That can be a scary thought, but it can also be a very invigorating one that pushes us into the space of doing. None of us want to near the end of our lives, looking back on lost opportunity with regret.
How much different might our lives have been, had we just taken a few more of those risks that we avoided skeptically? The dissatisfaction would eat away at our already dwindling souls and would expedite our demise.
