Playing It Safe 

“If your not making mistakes, then you’re

 not doing anything.”

John Wooden 1910 – 2010, American Basketball Player and

 Coach,Won 10 National Championships in 12 years at UCLA

 

 

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

Playing it safe

 

You can go through life playing it safe . . . . by staying in your comfort zone and to settle for what life hands you. Settling at best will never give you more then what to got today . . . . and in most cases you’ll end up getting a lot less.

 

One of the most painful mistakes that you can make is to settle . . . . and stay in your comfort zone. In your comfort zone you will miss the opportunities . . . . and put a ceiling on your potential.

 

Mistakes are the price you pay for your personal growth . . . . and in stretching yourself out of your comfort zone. They are a small price to pay in comparison to your upside potential of stretching yourself forward to reach for a greater level of success in your life and career.

 

When you’re working hard . . . . and stretching yourself to achieve your goals mistakes will happen. You can overcome them with a positive attitude . . . . and with a focused to effort to more pass them.

 

The only people that go through life without making mistakes are the people who are not doing anything.  They do make a massive . . . .   mistake of settling for less than they can be.

Lou the Wizard of Westwood knew what he was talking about...love your interpretation:

If we always play it safe, we will never stretch ourselves and learn.

Lou - I am just learning this concept now, and wish I had realized it many, many years ago. Getting out of our comfort zone and trying things is the only way to find greater success, even though you may fail once in a while.
