DREAMING BIG, BECOMING BRAVE
IT'S ONLY WHEN YOU MAKE THE PROCESS YOUR GOAL THAT THE BIG DREAM CAN FOLLOW
As long as we dare to dream and don't get in the way of ourselves, anything is possible—there's truly no end to where our dreams can take us.
—Hilary Swank, actress
Be daring, be different, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers…
—Cecil Beaton, photographer
Years ago I was in the parking lot across the street from Spago, I could see the stars with their Oscars going into the after party. I said to myself, 'I want to do that one day'…After I got the Oscar and walked offstage, I said to Kevin [Kline], 'Did that just happen?' It felt like I fell asleep in the mail room and I was going to wake up and find out it was all a dream."
—Denzel Washington, actor
My mother and father were poor, and when I turned pro, I started making money…I wasn't thinking of being the greatest. But I knew I had a chance. And when I won at the Olympics, that sealed it: I was the champ.
—Muhammad Ali, former heavyweight champion boxer
Nothing really worth having is easy to get. The hard-fought battles, the goals won with sacrifice, are the ones that matter.
—Aisha Tyler, actress and comedian
Fortune helps those who dare.
—Virgil, poet
Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine, and at last you create what you will.
—George Bernard Shaw, playwright
I fear only God. I don't fear any human. When you have that kind of spirit, you can just do what you have to do. Let it roll.
—Stevie Wonder, singer
My life…is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next.
—Gilda Radner, actress
If you can allow yourself to breathe into the depth, wonder, beauty, craziness, and strife—everything that represents the fullness of your life—you can live fearlessly. Because you come to realize that if you just keep breathing, you cannot be conquered.
"One night a seventy-year-old woman came up to me after the show [The Color Purple on Broadway] and told me she'd also been a single mother who had dropped out of school, and now she's taking nursing classes. She said, 'You inspired me.' You can't tell me that dreams don't come true. My life is proof that they do."
—Fantasia Barrino, American Idol winner
Living is a form of not being sure, not knowing what next or how…We guess. We may be wrong, but we take leap after leap in the dark.
—Agnes de Mille, dancer
"Adventure comes with no guarantees or promises. Risk and reward are conjoined twins—and that's why my favorite piece of advice needs translation but no disclaimers: Fortes fortuna javat. 'Fortune favors the brave,' the ancient Roman dramatist Terence declared. In other words, there are many good reasons not to toss your life up in the air and see where it lands. Just don't let fear be one of them."
—Mary South, author
I come from a family whose belief was, You can do it, but you have to work really hard.
—Condoleeza Rice, former U.S. secretary of state
There are so many talented actors who don't ever get the chance…I go down on my knees in extreme gratitude. I don't take it for granted. I know all these actors who are probably more talented than I am. I've taken the chance and done my best with it.
—Charlize Theron, actress
Failure is a signpost to turn you in another direction.
The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.
You can do anything you want to do. What is rare is this actual wanting to do a certain thing: wanting it so much that you are practically blind to other things, that nothing else will satisfy you…I know I have said a lot when I say, 'You can do anything you want to do.' But I mean it…Blunder ahead with your personal view…The real work of art is the result of a magnificent struggle.
—Robert Henri, painter
What I know for sure is that no matter where you stand right now—on a hilltop, in a gutter, at a crossroads, in a rut—you need to give yourself the best you have to offer in this moment. This is it. Rather than depleting yourself with judgments about what you haven't done, who you could have become, why you haven't moved faster, or what you should have changed, redirect that energy toward the next big push—the one that takes you from enough to better. The one that takes you from adequate to extraordinary. The one that helps you rise up from a low moment and reach for your personal best.
Dreams come true; without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them.
—John Updike, author
In action lies wisdom and confidence.
—Albert Schweitzer, theologian
To be fully human is…to know that it's possible to face the unimaginable and somehow put one foot in front of the other.
To follow your life's guidance, you may have to reassign some seemingly important things to 'unimportant.' If you believe that pleasing your horrible boss or having a spotless house is a higher priority than playing with your children or sleeping off the flu, be prepared for a long and strenuous battle against destiny. Also, be prepared to lose.
—Martha Beck, life coach
Miracles sometimes happen, but more often they're made of faith and wit and hope and imagination, to say nothing of sweat.
—Tom Waldman, writer
When people tell me something is impossible, I try to prove them wrong.
—Richard Branson, entrepreneur
I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear.
—Rosa Parks, civil rights pioneer
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.
—Anaïs Nin, author
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face…You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
—Eleanor Roosevelt, former First Lady
I truly believe that a woman can have anything she wants—if she's willing to do the hard work it takes to get it.
The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.
—Mignon McLaughlin, journalist
Courage is only an accumulation of small steps.
—George Konrad, author
A voice in me said, You have to rise to the occasion or the best in you will die. We always have that voice; we just have to make a choice to listen to it. We all have it; that's God's given light. It's just whether you have the courage to step into your destiny.
—Lily Yeh, artist
I believe that one of life's greatest risks is never daring to risk…Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire.
One of the things that's great about failure is, it's never as bad as you think it's going to be. You think it's going to be the end of the world, and it's really not.
—Lisa Rau, writer
I notice well that one stray step from the habitual path leads irresistibly into a new direction.
—Franz Grillparzer, playwright and poet
What would happen if we declared our home, our relationships, our lives a gossip-free zone? We'd probably be surprised at how much time we'd free up to do the work that's most significant—building our dreams rather than tearing down others'.
Courage is the most important of all virtues, because without courage, you cannot practice any of the other virtues consistently.
—Maya Angelou, author
Every successful person I have ever known has had it—that instinct to sense and seize the right moment without wavering or playing it safe.
—Moss Hart, playwright
Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome.
—Arthur Ashe, tennis champion
"All of us need a vision for our lives,
