WishandBack Bones....

Replace the wishbone with your backbone!
  • I wish I could just do that...
  • I wish I lived there....
  • I wish I could meet that person....
  • I wish I could lose that weight
  • I wish I could stop that terrible habit
  • I wish I could follow my dreams....
  • I wish I could start that new business.....

Sound familiar? We have all heard people talk like this and even some of us practice these very thoughts every day. Living a life of "I wish..." is no way to go through this world. It leads to a life of regret. And nobody wants to travel down the Regret Road.

So what can you do? Take out the wishbone in your back and replace it with what is suppose to be there: A Backbone! We all only get one shot at this world so Try Things! Don't wish; Try things. Nike says: Just do it; Chris Tapken says: Just Try It! Don't live life in the grandstands watching time go by and others playing the game while you are not following your dreams. Go on the field of life and play the game as it is to be played. JUST TRY IT!

As I talked about in the previous post when you Just Try It!, nothing bad happens. Even when we don't meet the expectations or things don't go exactly as planned, its still OK. Nothing bad happens so Just Try It!

Courage, Risk, Guts, Fulfillment, Excitement, Joy, Abundance, Fear (good kind), Adrenalin, Peace, Depth, Health, Deep Soul-Inner contentment, Fun, Nerves, Humility...these are some of the feelings you will have when you start acting on your life and stop just talking and wishing.
