I AM MOTIVATINAL BOMB When we realize how huge this world is and how many masses of people are fighting for the same job, the same person, the same dream home — it’s enough to make us want to throw up our hands and give up. Yet there are only few who “make it”– whose dreams come to fruition. It’s not because they’re more talented or brilliant; it’s because they’re the only ones crazy enough to believe they are, indeed, powerful and special enough to break through and be seen.
6. Crazy people aren’t shackled by the fear of failure The pressing fear of failure is what holds us back from ever taking a glorious risk. We can’t imagine it’s ever going to be possible to recover after a cracked heart or the cold stone fist of rejection, so we choose to protect ourselves from love instead. Crazy people aren’t afraid to fall. Crazy people aren’t afraid to taste the concrete. They aren’t perfectionists; they understand there is nothing in the world that can’t be healed. They recklessly dive in, while the rest of us hide beneath the comfort of our 1,000thread-count sheets, protecting ourselves from feeling the bad — but also from feeling the otherworldly good.
7. Crazy people don’t ask for permission Crazy people never ask for permission; they live by the saying, “I would rather beg for forgiveness than ask for permission.” They go for it. Maybe they’ll end up in jail. Maybe they’ll end up with an Oscar.
