Risky Living

Sunday, we talked about difference makers. There were four ideas that caught out attention:

1. Difference makers live out of their own suitcase.
2. Difference makers live with the end in mind.
3. Difference makers live to be a blessing.
4. Difference makers live risky lives.

With that idea of risky living in mind, let me give you a few quotes:

"You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down."--Ray Bradbury

"The pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty."--Winston Churchill

"Creativity requires the courage to let go of certainties."--Erich Fromm

"A rut is nothing but a grave--with both ends kicked out."--Vance Havner

"Restlessness and discontent are the first necessities of progress."--Thomas A. Edison

"I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it." Pablo Picasso
