Yes, I’ll take the scary stage, please
Oh, hi friends!
Last night, a bunch of people were performing on the biggest stage of their lives.
Leslie Odom, Jr. Pink. Patriots. Eagles. Timberlake. Heck, all the creative agencies that made the commercials.
All the eyes…all the pressure…all the glory.
Made me think: What kind of stage am I on?
What kind of stage are you on?
What kind of stage do you want to be on?
You probably already know. (Don't kid yourself—you know.)
So what’s one thing—one tiny little thing—you can do today to move on the path it takes to get there?
“Seeing how far you could go is the challenge of life. I want to see how far I can go, how many things I can do, how many miles I can pile on before I drop dead. I'm so curious. I want to see what's out there and what's around the bend. That's why I wake up really excited in the morning. What's going to happen today?”
I love Barbara Corcoran’s attitude.
How far will you go today?
(Related: I still listen to the Moana song every week.)
