2 Lessons

• Take a Chance

Something that often gets ignored about successful people is this one simple truth.

They take chance.

They risk big.

They bet on themselves.

Nobody makes it big by playing it safe.

Now, I’m not saying go all in on ace-2 off suit (for my poker fans out there).

What I am saying is take calculated risks.

Tryout for a team or part you want that you’re “not ready” for.

Bet on yourself more.

Look for opportunities to do something different than everyone else.

As I’ve posted a few times now I have recently taken this chance.

I’m betting on myself.

I’m betting on my experiences and what I’ve learned over the last 2 and a half years.

This week I close on my house.

It’s starting to get real.

I’m excited, but I know I have to stay focused.

This is a pretty big risk at this point in my life.

I’m moving my family, I have 3 kids, and I’m starting from 0.

There are many out there who might look at that and think I’m making a mistake.

I don’t see it that way.

I see possibilities.

I see impact.

I see growth opportunities.

I see a future that I want as a husband, father, provider.

Now, I don’t want you to think I’m just some naive dreamer.

I’ve calculated what the bare minimum I need to make is.

I’ve planned what I’m going to do to create revenue.

I’ve created contingencies for multiple scenarios.

I’m not just wishing on a star.

I’ve made a calculated risk.

And while this particular risk may seem too rich for you, that doesn’t mean you can’t start to do the same in your life.

See where you can take some chances.

What risks are you willing to take.

The world needs more people hungry to take chances.

We need courage.

We need you!

• Dream Big

Do you still dream big?

Are there things you want to do that if you told someone they might look at you funny?

Good.

Too often as we get older our big dreams start to fade into distant memory.

We need big dreams.

They give us something to chase.

Something to reach for.

They give us a sense of purpose.

Without dreams, we start to go through the motions of life.

We lose our excitement.

The world often tries to stop us from dreaming.

People will tell you;

“Be realistic.”

“Don’t waste your time.”

“Don’t waste your money.”

“You’ll never be famous.”

“Nobody cares about this.”

“You’re too old.”

The truth is there will always be those who don’t understand your dream.

They will try to stop you from dreaming for fear that you might achieve something more than them.

They’ve lost their ability to dream and in return they hope you do too.

Dream anyway.

Dream big.

Become someone who sees the world for all the possibilities that are in it.

There’s a dream out there for all of us.

A life that brings us joy and makes us excited to show up in it each day.

A dream life.

Make sure you keep building yours.

Special Look Back

Dr. Rob Bell:

Curious about The Edge of Greatness Summit? Here’s a video from Dr. Rob Bell from last year’s event. This video about what it takes to achieve greatness is a powerful lesson and story about the team it takes to find greatness. No one gets there alone.

Kirk Cabana:

Kirk delivers a powerful message about taking a leap of faith. Choosing to take a chance on himself and to live his life with purpose. His message and story is extremely inspiring and this video will get you ready to charge forward into the next challenge in your life.

Dewayne Carter Jr.:

Dewayne is a senior at Duke University. He is captain for the football team and has built an incredible resume for himself. More impressive than his on field accomplishments is who he’s become as a leader and person. In this video he shares his thoughts on greatness.
