Have
you ever watched a toddler that is in the process of walking? There little
chunky legs may be slow, wobbly and unsure at times, but they never give up no
matter how many times they fall and cry. Though parents know this process is
essential, they will smile when their child (with outstretched arms) comes to
them. It can all be a bit nerve-wracking at times when your toddler starts to
explore steps.
When
it comes to exploring an opportunity, how do you handle that? I saw this quote
on the media screen at my church. I believe it applies here. “You don’t have to
see the whole staircase just to take the first step.” Stepping out into the
unknown can be extremely scary. Remember, “Nothing ventured; nothing gain.” Of course,
always do your research to make sure you know all the facts before going
outside your comfort zone.
If
you think about your life today, much of what you have and use on a daily basis
is because someone had a solution to a problem they wanted to share with the
public. Wherever you call “home” taking a few minutes to look around; things
like lights, computers, phones (of any kind), or alarm systems came out of the fertile
imagination of an inventor (a problem solver).“
With
your common sense in tow, give whatever it is a try. That’s the only way you
can find out about the sweetness in life.
There is goodness all around you. Allow others to help. What have you
got to lose?
