If the whole world were listening, what would you say? (We're not the whole world, but we're listening!)
Life isn't worth living unless you're willing to take some chances and go for broke. Alter your attitude and you can alter your life. It comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no "do-overs" so you have to live it to the fullest. Make every second count. Make sure the important people in your life know how important they are and how much they mean to you. Always be yourself, express yourself and have faith in yourself. Use your words wisely. They are your greatest tool in showing the world who you really are.
