Idea 💡

“To dare is to lose one’s footing momentarily. Not to dare is to lose oneself."

– Søren Kierkegaard

Reflection 🤔

If you never take risks, you'll never see get any outsized reward.

Rewards aren’t always material either. Loving relationships, creative expression, or any other investment in life carries inherent risk. It’s what makes the reward so precious.

Risk is scary, but essential for growth. No one looks back on their life and wishes they dared less for themselves.

Action ✅

Take one creative risk with your project today.
