It isn't courageous to go forth when you don't know the dangers. But it's very courageous to go forth when you do.

Whatever outrageous dream keeps flowing across your mind, allow it to live inside you. Don't deflect it, diminish it, invalidate it or come up with some excuse for why it can't happen.
