START: pgs 122-134

START; Punch Fear In The Face; Escape Average; Do Something That Matters, by Jon Acuff

What does success look like?
What destination feels like success?
Which path feels good, but not great?
Which path feels ok, but not awesome?

It's not too late to be a great parent.
It's not too late to start a new profession.
It's not too late to go back to school.
It's not too late to be something different.

When we stop believing that, we let fear and doubt cripple us.
"It's too late" is a lie that will stay with you if you let it.

It's never too late to start.

Pick something and start.  Don't try to prioritize a list of your passions.  
Start on something. Edit it if it's not your awesome.  Move on to the next thing.

Most of the time we try to stand in the middle of the passion seesaw and balance perfectly.  We're afraid to pick the wrong thing, so we just hover there instead of jumping to one side. 

Be the person you've always dreamed of being.  Be your secret self.

Personal Notes:
I'm starting to let my secret self come out.
