That's your Super Bowl.

Not a miracle, but that step forward.

One more sunrise.

And if you can do it now...

when the walls feel like they're caving in, when the sky feels like it's crashing down.

If you find the courage in this moment, you'll begin that journey into the depths of your soul, the ride to what's ahead, the better days assembled just beyond the confines of the present moment.

Often courage is required of us when it's most difficult to reach in and find it.

But it's there.

So take it.

Allow yourself to be that person you were meant to be.

I love my life.

As the giant rock you inhabit spins through the universe, a speck in a galaxy of stars, it's easy to look out and see the vastness of the world around you and forget entirely about the strength that you possess.

Forget entirely that the mind's capacity is as infinite as those same stars that surround you.

I don't think it's that we definitively choose to sell ourselves short.

I think we simply lose sight of the fact that we have a say in the matter to begin with.

Our fears keep us wishing, our insecurities keep us hoping we stay standing still when we should be moving forward.

But truth be told, our pain comes from not doing, but wishing that we did.

It's no coincidence that the more we fail, the more we realize life is a game that expands as we push.

The power of making mistakes isn't the mistake itself, it's that when we get back up and brush ourselves off, our cognitive mapping of the world changes.

We see that we can step out a little further.
