Standing on top of a 1,000 story building — jump

“I can’t eat, I can’t sleep — the thoughts of “what if” running through my head. My stomach feels like its dropping and will never stop. The worst part… I don’t even know If I’m wearing a parachute. If I am… will it open?”

Walking into a realm which you’ve never been. Traveling outside your comfort zone. Pushing yourself beyond the limits you knew possible.

As a young child this is an hourly occurrence. As a kid it happens daily. Becoming an adult you start to see it less and less. Then finally you’re “Older” or “Elderly” scared as hell for what tomorrow will bring.

As life reveals… There is usually someone or something there to catch you when you’re falling. Sometimes you don’t know who or what — that is the most frightening thing of all.

Trust, is a very complex and extremely fragile thing. You think you have it but, then it’s gone. You think you know what it is, like an Eagle flying through the sky, when in the blink of an eye it turns into a vulture swooping down for its next meal.

The question trust always leads us to “Why.” Why do I feel the way I do?

Why am I not willing to let go and trust they will catch me?

As an entrepreneur I live in a world of endless jumps from 1,000 story buildings. You embrace, when jumping, there is no parachute. Confidence lies in an ability to find and open your “Chute” before hitting the ground.

These jumps have created my realm. In it, I’ve become confident in my ability to fly beside you when we jump. I know we’ll find a “Chute” and open it when the time is right. Look around, ask around — you’ll see — they will tell you.
