Here’s a video that I found on facebook and youtube. A motivational video for those who took risk to live.
I am one of that individual who always takes risk to live.
I failed many times but got up more than the times I failed. And never considered failing as a failure, for me it’s just a learning experienced in order for me to succeed.
Every person at certain point of his/her life, has dreamed of being someone special, someone big. Who hasn’t fantasized about being the individual who runs the winning touchdown? Who hasn’t dreamed of living the life you’ve imagined? And how many times have we dreamed of being rich, or successful, or happy with our relationships?
Often, we imagine big dreams and come up with great aspirations. Unfortunately, our dreams remain just a dream. And our aspirations easily collect dust in our attic.
This is a sad turn of events in our life. We get caught up in the insanity way of living, instead of experiencing exciting adventures in self actualization.
But you know what? Life could be so much better, if only we learned to aim higher.
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you imagined.

The most common problem to setting goals is the word impossible. Most people get hung up thinking I can’t do this. It’s too hard. It’s too impossible. No one can do this.
However, if everyone thought that, there would be no inventions, no innovations, and no breakthroughs in human accomplishment.
Usually the main problem to setting goals is the word impossible. Most folks get hung up thinking I can’t solve this. It’s too hard. It’s hopeless. No one can do this.
However, if everybody think that, there would be no inventions, no innovations, and no breakthroughs in human accomplishment.
Remember that scientists were baffled when they took a look at the humble bumblebee. Theoretically, they said, it was impossible for the bumblebee to fly because of it’s small wings and a big body characteristics. Just like in the “Bee Movie” as Barry quoted. Unfortunately for the bumble bee no one has told it so. So fly it does.
On the other hand, several people suffer from dreaming completely outrageous dreams and not acting on them. The result? Shattered dreams, and tattered aspirations.
If you limit yourself with self-doubt, and self-limiting assumptions, you will in no way be able to break past what you think is impossible. If you reach too far out into the sky without working towards your goal, you will find yourself clinging on to the impossible dream.
Try this exercise to work towards your dream. Take a piece of paper and write down some goals in your life. Under one header, list down things ‘you know you can do’. Under another header, write the things ‘you might be able to do.’ And under one more, list the things that that are ‘impossible for you to do.’
At this time look at all the headers strive each day to accomplish the goals that are under things ‘you know you can do’. Check them when you are able to accomplish them. As you slowly are able to check all of your goals under that heading, try accomplishing the goals under the other header-the one that reads ‘you might be able to do.’
As of the items you wrote under things I could do are accomplished, you can move the goals that are under things that are ‘impossible for you to do’ to the list of things ‘you might be able to do.’
As you iterate through this process, you will find out that the goals you thought were impossible become easier to accomplish. And the impossible begin to seem possible after all.
You see, the technique here is not to limit your imagination. It is to aim high, and start working towards that goal little by little. However, it also is unwise to set a goal that is truly unrealistic.
Those who just dream towards a goal without working hard end up disappointed and disillusioned.
On the other hand, if you told someone a hundred years ago that it was possible for man to be on the moon, they would laugh at you. If you had told them that you could send mail from here to the other side of the world in a few seconds, they would say you were out of your mind. But, through sheer desire and perseverance, these impossible dreams are now realities.
Thomas Edison once said that genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Nothing could be truer. For one to accomplish his or her dreams, there has to be had work and discipline. But take note that that 1% has to be a think-big dream, and not some easily accomplished one.
Ask any gym rat and he or she will tell you that there can be no gains unless you are put out of your comfort zone. Remember the saying, “No pain, no gain”? That is as true as it can be.
So dream on, friend! Don’t get caught up with your perceived limitations. Think big and work hard to attain those dreams. As you step up the ladder of progress, you will just about find out that the impossible has just become a little bit more possible.
