"The world needs you to share your gifts and go for your dreams. There aren't enough people who have the courage to go for it."

I've been thinking about the power of courage lately because I've been able to achieve some of my biggest dreams.

These dreams are things like becoming aNYTbestselling author, going onThe Ellen Show(两次了!),在做体育运动我爱而representing the USA national team.

But none of that would have happened if I hadn't had the courage to first face my dreams.

它并不困难to dream big. But it can be really hard to show up when the opportunity comes to make those dreams happen.

"You've got to be willing to risk the chance of looking like a failure."

As Walt Disney said, "All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them." I invite you to take courage in Episode 474.
