crazy until proven sane

Maybe I'm a romantic, but aren't some of the most important and valued things in life began by taking a huge risk first? One of my favorite quotes right now is, "The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one." If we are constantly fearing the worst and not willing to take a chance for something we view as important, then when does life begin? Where is people's faith? Why is it that when someone takes a huge risk for something they truly believe in, they are considered stupid first... and then later, if it works out after all, they're considered brave or wise? Crazy until proven sane.

There are no guarantees in this worldly life. The only thing we can be certain of is that things will always change. So, the only way we can lead our lives is with the faith that we are being guided, trust our judgment, and have the ability to allow it to happen. It doesn't always have to make sense to everyone else, you just have to know in your heart, mind, and spirit that it's right. I know, easier said than done. But if you have doubt, use that as a tool to evaluate your decision more carefully and take the next step towards your goal. Don't let the cloud of uncertainty run you; break it down, own it, and move forward.

I've heard it said that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results, Albert Einstein. So don't be discouraged when your attempt fails. Get up, approach it differently, and keep trying until you succeed. To everyone else, you may look insane. But to the few and far between that are committed enough to stand behind you, you are simply genius for seeing through the fog of ignorance to the other side. I say, those who doubt are simply ignorant until proven crazy enough to try.

Let's get crazy.
