The Risk of Leading Life

Don’t think in terms of comfort; think in terms of freedom.  Don’t think in terms of safety, think in terms of being more alive.  And the only way to be more alive is to live dangerously, is to risk, is to go on an adventure.  And the greatest adventure is not going to the moon – the greatest adventure is going to your own innermost core. Osho

The familiar is extremely comfortable, and yet the adventure of alivening is beyond what you know. Notice that what you may initially sense as fear can also be understood as excitement. They’re pretty much the same sensation, it’s the unchallenged internal framework that creates the distinction.

What if every time you felt fear you reframed it into excitement? What if you imagined yourself as an explorer, an adventurer, one who is at the leading edge of life?

It’s true, you know. You are the energy of life expanding its edge . . . sometimes minutely, sometimes in quantum leaps. Fear lets you know you’re in the potential of leadership.

What is the more that you are leading life into?
