To laugh is to risk appearing a fool,
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental
To reach out to another is to risk involvement,
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self
To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss
To love is to risk not being loved in return,
To hope is to risk despair,
To try is to risk to failure.
But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing is nothing.
He may avoid suffering and sorrow,
But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live.
Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom.
Only a person who risks is free.
The pessimist complains about the wind;
The optimist expects it to change;
And the realist adjusts the sails.

William Arthur Ward

"Joy is what happens when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are."

Marianne Williamson
Author of A Return To Love

"The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he's always doing both."

James A. Michener

Anyone can live an average life, getting through each day and through each week. But to have an extraordinary life, most of us can use some help. Space is still available in the 7 Steps to True Freedom 8 week seminar Thursday night series that starts September 28.

This program, presented in a group setting, is the same program offered to one-on-one life coaching clients . One client who completed the 7 Steps to True Freedom said "Words cannot describe the changes my life has experienced through the 'True Freedom' program with Coach Dan Wilson. It feels like every day serves to re-define 'how high is high in my life." Another said, "Dina opened my mind to a more positive way of thinking, a different way of speaking to myself and others and the unlimited ongoing possibilities of choices."

Take the first step toward living the life you really want by registering for the 7 Steps to True Freedom seminar program today!
