Dream BIG

If there were ever a time to dare, to make a difference, to embark on something worth doing, it is now.
Not even necessarily for any grand cause but for something that tugs at your heart, something that you feel passionate about, something that you have dreamed about

You owe it to yourself to make your days here count. Have fun. Dig deep. Stretch. Dream big.
Know, though, that things worth doing seldom come easy. There will be good days. There will be times when you want to turn around, pack it up, and call it quits. Those times tell you that you are pushing yourself, that you are not afraid to learn by trying.

Persist. Because with an idea, determination, and right tools, you can do great things. Let your instincts, your intellect, and your heart guide you. Learn to trust. Believe in the incredible power of the human mind. Believe in the good of making a difference. Believe in working hard. Believe in laughing and hoping. Value lazy afternoons. Value lasting friends. Look forward with anticipation towards all the things that will cross your path this year.

The start of something new brings the hope of something great. Anything is possible. There is only one you. And you will pass this only once. Do it right.

(paraphrased from a Macintosh ad in 1991)
