Doctor, will you choose to step forward or backward today?

Doctor, will you choose to step forward or backward today?

Right now, you have the choice - step forward into growth and learning, or step backward into what feels like safety and security.

Most people step backward - and guess what?!  That slowly kills your chances to become more, to become extraordinary.

The problem is that our culture has engaged in a Faustian bargain, in which we trade our genius and artistry for apparent stability.”  
 ~ Seth Godin


But - there’s no security in life. 

Billions can go away fast, let alone the money of an average person. Health can change at any time. People can go away.  

That’s all scary!  

So, the search for security comes from that fear.  Generosity and courage are the antidotes.

Go forward into growth, to learning, to developing into the most generous, hopeful, courageous, forgiving and humble being you can be.

Step up.  Step up.  Step up.

Love,
Doctor, will you choose to step forward or backward today?
