The worst thing that could happen

The worst thing that could happen is you never gave it a shot. If you gave it a shot and you missed, at least that's not the worst thing that could have happened.

Expect to Fail

It's gonna happen. It's okay. Write it off. Enjoy the experience. When you succeed, you will fail. Failures can be sweet if you persevere. Rarely will you build character through success. Success is often more satisfying when preceded by a sereis of failures to attain it.

Scenerio 1) You try. You fail. You learn. You grow. Your appetite increases. Your vision increases. You do it all over. If your vision is big enough, you'll always fail, and along the way inspire others to see the same vision. If the vision is big enough, they will fail as well having inspired others to see the same vision.

Scenario 2) You try. You fail. You question why you ever tried. You can't remember why though it was worth the effort. You feel like a fool. You live with what you have. You wonder what could have been like.

How I want to lead

I want to follow God and barely notice that people are following me, or I'll notice that I happen to be walking in front of a crowd of people who are following God.

My Default Vision

In my default vision,
All that I own is a message and the media on whch it is recorded.

In my default vision,
My tongue is on fire with a message that consumes my life.

In my default vision,
I am enveloped by a light emanating from within so only a shadow of self is visible.

In my default vision,
I walk with God until I am not.
