THE UNCONVENTIONAL PATH

There is great personal power in the taking of an unconventional path -- of doing things that other people usually don't consider. Steve Jobs said: "When you grow up, you tend to get told that the world is the way it is. Your life is to live your life inside the world, to try not to bash into the walls too much: Try to have a nice family life, have fun, save a little money... but that's a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact: Everything around you that you call "life" was made up by people that were no smarter than you -- and you can change it. 
He is proof of his beliefs and we have benefited from his bravery. 
The minute you understand that you can change your life, that you can mold it, that's maybe the most important step to achievement of your dreams. To shake off the erroneous notion that life is there and you're just going to have to live in it -- versus embrace it, change it, improve it, and make your mark upon it is what I call your 'Adventure in Success.'
Tonight on the Super Bowl, Keanu Reeves performed an act of extreme physical difficulty and danger.  He needed to do this in order to bust thru his fears.  How fortunate that he did it on film repeating Will Powers words in the song Adventures in Success as now you can view it on line and have a mental picture of it. 

Each of us have the opportunity to chose what our challenges will be.  Make a mental picture of someone like Keanu or Steve Jobs, Marley Dias, Helen Keller, Bethany Hamilton, Jim Carey, Albert Einstein, Stephen King;  people who achieved success against all odds.  
Educate yourself to the possibilities life offers you to reach your full potential.
