"Don't live down to expectations. Go out there and do something remarkable." - Wendy Wasserstein, Tony Award-winning playwright
Do something remarkable - no problem!!! I spent way too many years living down to my own low expectations. I don't choose to live that way anymore. I'm doing things now that I never thought I would have the nerve to attempt. This blog is a good example. I had been wanting to do something like this for a long time but I "knew" in my heart that I wouldn't be good enough to write anything worthwhile.
Now, I don't worry about how successful this blog is or how many people read it. It's about getting my own ideas out and sharing them with my friends. If I get feedback on a particular post, that's even better. The point is that I'm never going to know when something I share is going to help another person. So I post my thoughts and let my Higher Power orchestrate the results. I don't have to try to manipulate outcomes today. I'm just having fun writing. The remarkable part is that I'm doing something I love to do without worries to weigh me down. I hope everyone is blessed with the opportunity to do the same. It's worth the effort.
