Falling from the sky
If you went skydiving and weren't prepared for what would happen, what would you do and
think?
When skydiving, you typically leap out of the plane at 14,000 feet. This means you free fall for
about 30 seconds until your parachute deploys. On average you fall 200 feet per second.
Well, in this case your parachute did not deploy. Yes, pretty unimaginable right? Well, what
would go through your mind? Would you think about taking out your phone and texting loved
ones? Would you take a deep breath and look at the pretty sky? Would you panic? Would you
pass out? Well, like I said it's unimaginable.
That is what creativity is. Something that no one will think about or think will happen. It's things
like these that you should step back and look at the bigger picture. IF this were the case what
would you think about?
Would you be proud of yourself and how you treat others? Would you think and know that you
did everything possible and worked hard in each thing you did?
I hope you reflect back for a moment and think about what would be the #1 thing you remember
yourself by?
