Welcome to today's show! If you've ever had to make a big decision (who hasn't?) this show is for you.
In this solo episode, we delve into what it takes to make a decision in your life that "goes against the grain." And how this can ultimately help you from having regrets on your death bed--referencing Bonnie Ware's work on the 5 regrets of the dying.
#1 of which is: "I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me."
Some other quotes referenced in this show:
"The cave that you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek." --Joseph Campbell
"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference."--Robert Frost
"Curiosity will conquer fear even better than bravery will."--James Stephens
We go back in time to historical examples of bravery: Christopher Columbus, George Washington Carver and Daniel from the Karate Kid movie.
