Take a Shot

"Try. 'Cause if you haven't tried, you haven't lived."

-Death, Meet Joe Black

So many of us have dreams and ideas that we've imagined day in and day out for years on end. Yet, for some reason, we never give them an honest chance.

There are thousands of excuses, many I've made myself:

I can't do it.

It's a stupid idea, anyway.

What if I make a fool of myself?

I don't want to fail...

All valid fears. But all lies until proven true. Think about it. All of those things might be true! But you'll never know until you try. Excuses are the opposite of our dreams, the antagonist that keeps us from moving forward.

Do something that scares you. Try something you've dreamt of.

Take a shot.
