Dare mighty things!

Teddy Roosevelt said:

"Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered with failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows no victory nor defeat."

We can sit back, watch the world go by, grow old and never take a chance in life. When all is said and done, we can look back and wonder if we did our best to make a mark in the world or did we do nothing other than just work and exist. When we die will we have our name erased without anyone knowing we were there?

There is nothing wrong with trying to make a difference. Even if we fail a few times, we have only failed if we quit. Wither it is raising a family or starting a business, we only fail if we do not try.
