What an inspirational quote.

I’ve heard many quotes along this line and they always inspire me to aim higher. To “Shoot for the moon!” I’ve heard used. If you reach for a star you will get farther. If your reach for a star, you are reaching a little out of your comfort zone.

At the 2015 Podcast Movement, Pat Flynn, of Smart Passive Income Podcast fame did a small exercise in his keynote address. Pat is an accomplished speaker, and he excelled at this keynote.

Pat, You Rocked It, my friend!

One of the key things I walked away with from the conference and Pat’s keynote is this exercise.  Pat asked everyone to stand up. He then asked to raise our hands. Of course, some of us, ME, were perplexed until he continued.

“Now stand on your tip toes and reach up a little higher.”, Pat said. We all did, and everyone got smacked with the BFO – that’s a Blinding Flash of the Obvious for the uninformed – that we can all just reach a little further if we try. It may be 2 inches this time, but next time we reach for a start, we might just get one.

And to further the point of the quote of the day, if we didn’t get our goal, we won’t get a hand full of mud, either.
