THE POWER OF TAKING THE PLUNGE<br />
When I heard Zig Ziglar give that analogy, it<br />
stuck. I soon came to realize that our greatest<br />
danger is our comfort zone. We are either<br />
climbing or sliding. There’s no in between. We<br />
are either getting better or worse. The research<br />
is clear that if we do nothing with our threedimensional<br />
being, we begin to deteriorate<br />
mentally, physically, and spiritually. We<br />
inevitably lessen our days on earth. It’s been<br />
validated by many studies on longevity that<br />
when a person retires from meaningful work or<br />
a career, death will occur around the seven-year<br />
mark.<br />
Consistently improving in personal<br />
development of our three-dimensional beings is<br />
the key to long life, joy, happiness, and<br />
significance. Most just go with the flow or do<br />
what their parents did, or what their reference<br />
groups say to do even though they hate it.<br />
Christian Evangelist Robert H. Schuller once<br />
said, "Even a dead fish can float downstream."<br />
You know in your heart that you’re unique.<br />
Your DNA proves that uniqueness. In fact, out<br />
of the 108 billion plus people who have ever<br />
lived, there is no one quite like you. All too<br />
