A blind man had been waiting a while at a busy road for someone to offer to guide him across, when he felt a tap on his shoulder.



"Excuse me," said the taper, "I`m blind - would you mind guiding me across the road?"



The first blind man took the arm of the second blind man, and they both crossed the road.



Apparently this is a true story. The first blind man was the jazz pianist George Shearing. He commented on this incidence �What could I do? I took him across and it was the biggest thrill of my life."



Moral �



There are times when we think we cannot do something and so do not stretch or take a risk.

Being forced to stretch and take a risk can often help us to reduce our dependencies (on others, or our own personal safety mechanisms), and to discover new excitement and capabilities.



Action Plan-



Do one thing every day that scares you.

Don`t refuse to go on an occasional wild goose chase - that`s what wild geese are for.

Progress always involves risks. You can`t steal second base and keep your foot on first.



Bite off more than you can chew, then chew it.
