Today we join Mr. Peabody in the way back machine and start with an Abba classic:
Now if a reference from Bullwinkle and Rocky + the mention of an Abba song has not driven you away you must either (i) crazy, (ii) bored, or really interested in what I have to say today! Let’s assume it’s the third.
All too often we choose the “least risk” path. Now you can argue that we’re hard wired based on the evolutionary process to avoid risk, but I don’t buy it. I do buy that we’re “re-wired” from birth by society to choose the the least risk path. That makes taking chances something that we avoid.
Here Mr. Irony raises his head yet again. Think back on what you have accomplished. How many of those things came from you taking a chance? Tell me again why you’re afraid to take a chance? What’s the worst thing that could possibly happen?
Life’s too short to continue on a path that you don’t enjoy….
With that in mind:
- Are you ready to take a chance?
As always, thanks for the time.

Life is much more rewarding if we are willing to step out of the box. Who ever thought that I would be sharing the word of God from the pulpit? That was a definite leap of faith when I was urged to begin studying for that experience!
