Andy Monfried has a great post on his blog about having the courage to make decisions that aren’t safe and goes on talk about how he doesn’t want to build another cool company, but rather to change how media is bought. Not only is this post though-provoking and right¬† on the money, it’s engaging and extremely well written.

I’ve never met this dynamic young lady – but her adventurous journey, made me think about many of the opportunities we all take, and others we miss out on.

How many times have we said to ourselves that we will be more daring, take on more challenges, and generally just confront life head on, more aggressively?

Time is NOT on our side – (as Jagger and Richards wrote) – time works against us, and each day that passes in our lives makes, joining the proverbial circus, harder – more difficult, and more fraught with risk.

I’ve made a decision.

It’s really easy to get caught up in incremental improvement and to not take the intellectual steps needed to even dare to think big. Funnily enough, Andy Sack and I were having the same conversation last night. Maybe there’s something in the air.
