What Would You Attempt To Do If You Knew You Would Not Fail?

I came across this very thought provoking quote. I'm not sure I have an answer for it, but I really feel like I should. Isn't the answer the stuff that our dreams are made of

That's easy...

Jump off of the tallest building in town... and FLY. Get struck by lightning... and RUN at the speed of light. Inherit a power ring from a dying alien in a crashed ship... and save the WORLD.

Or realistically, run a successful production company that feeds, clothes and provides for us and our families over the next 50 years or so.

Spread wisdom, peace and love throughtout the world. Help those that are ready to wake up and become aware.

This strikes me as something that you probably already engage in, to a degree. Is there a fear of failure - of not being able to spread that wisdom, peace and love - that holds you back from trying?

[irismoon]

Yes....it's what i'm going thru right now. I'm seeing some potential opportunities on how to do it and i'm having to really rally the energy to go forward. It's scary sticking your neck out into the great big world. It might get chopped off! :)

I think if I had to narrow it down, my answer would be "Everything". But I guess that isn't a real answer. So...

- Learn every language in the world; every culture and its nuisances; learn to cook in every cuisine exquisitely.
- Be a father... and not screw the kid(s) up.
- Get closer to people - become a better friend.
- Produce movies that entertain the world, making them laugh until they pee and cry until it doesn't hurt anymore.

Assassinate Bush, Rumsfeld, and Cheney and get away with it.
