Living in the "Cheap Seats"

All my life I have been living in the "cheap seats", watching other people play the game. How often in your life have you lived in the "cheap seats", watching the game, not in it. And if you are in the game, which game are you in? Are you playing in the little league? Recreation? Minor leagues? Or are you in the major leagues? Are you playing full out?
These are the words from this speech which have captured my attention and inspired me to think of my own "cheap seat".

I encourage you to watch this video and get inspired by this speaker.


TEDx Inspirational Speaker Croix Sather - Do The Impossible


Here are some other quotes which stood out from the speech:
It's a whole lot easier to accept what's given to you, than to go out and make that difference, to make your life by your design. So things are impossible, but only impossible until someone does it for the first time.
If someone has done it for the first time, then the next question would not be whether it's possible or impossible, but rather what's next.
(At the end of the video) You know that you're only this far away from any goal in your life. Your dream life, anything that you want to do...put your hands up...this is how far it is from your goal.

I'm not going to live in my "cheap seats" any more!
