It's Better To Fail Chasing What You Want

from The Every Day Edge Hosted by Jamie Cain

"You can fail at what you don't want, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love." - Jim Carrey You probably had a dream growing up of what you wanted to be. An astronaut, an actor, a pilot, a musician, a professional artist, a world-renowned scientist, or maybe a wildlife photographer. You had dreams and then one day you "woke up" either because your parents/family told you to or that small nagging voice in your head shook you awake. You might have been told somewhere down the line that those dreams were just dreams, you might have been told to be realistic, go to school, get a good job and play defense. Somewhere your dream became really just a dream, it never became a goal, it never seemed real because you were told it wasn't. Imagine that you get hit by a bus tomorrow and it's over... Are you going to look down and think "Shoot! I'm really happy I played it safe and became the Best Buy manager!" Probably not. Here's the deal you can fail at anything! You can fail to play it safe, you can fail to do what others told you to probably do or you can take a chance at doing what you love. In today's episode, Jamie breaks down this quote by Actor Jim Carrey and why YOU need to pursue what you care about. If you enjoyed today's episode please rate 5 stars and subscribe!
