Who would have thought that one of the most powerful speeches to be transmuted on this blog would come from Justin Timberlake.

Not surprisingly, embedded in this speech is one of the greatest speeches of all time by the greatest president of all time: the man in the arena.

Timberlake’s message to all viewing, is to be willing to go into the arena, to struggle and fail.

And most of all, he wants to you to understand that being different is a good thing.

Imagine becoming a hero in your mind.

Imagine becoming the person you always wanted to become, rising above your self-limiting beliefs and conquering every obstacle in your way.

This picture of yourself was probably someone that you currently aren’t. But that is the power of an alter ego, where the person you think about is also the person you are working to become.

There is less the notion of selling a product and more of an emphasis on experiencing an event.

An event that is meant to be life-altering. [Read more…]

Helen Keller once noted that life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.

Too many of us start out truly believing in this as we make plans for trips around the world (after graduation of course), and then we make plans for daring adventures (after we get a good job of course) and then we make plans to save up (for a nice house of course) and then we make plans for a funeral.
