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