“It doesn't matter whether you earn ten thousand dollars a ye
ar or a million dollars a year as long as you've done the best you can. The essence of life is growth. It is doing the best you possibly can. Here's what is interesting: humans are the only life form that will do less than they possibly can.* Humans are the only life form that will settle for less. All other life forms except human beings strive to their maximum capacity.” Jim Rohn
I bought a bass guitar today, as I’ve wanted to do for a dozen years, but kept putting it off. I realized that it would be a shame to reach the end of my life and have to admit that I can’t play bass. Not with all the opportunities available to me.
* I’m not sure what Rohn says applies to cats. They seem content simply to exist, and a bit irked that the rest of us are taking up their space.
