There is a new CrossFit gym, CrossFit Audacity, opening up here in Columbia this month. The business owner, Jack Jones, has some inspirational words for all of you entrepreneurial dreamers: Held the first class at CrossFit Audacity tonight and wow - so many unexpected life lessons! All day as 5:30 approached I kept having random reasons why I should cancel tonights first class: the floor wasnt clean enough, they didnt get the toilets put back, I wasnt able to get our billing system set up... on and on and on. And a year ago I would have definitely cancelled. All the reasons were legitimate. They could have been justified. People would have understood. And I think thats why most of my big ideas have fizzled out. When it actually came time to take action I would let the fear of failure stop me from taking that final, crucial step. Now I see that these little decisions make all the difference between success and failure. Im so glad I went ahead with the class despite not being perfectly prepared. It was awesome. Everyone was so nice. We had a blast with dodgeball. Learned incredibly valuable lessons and tomorrow is going to be a little less scary. Ill be a little better prepared. The class will go a bit smoother. And thats all that needs to happen - get a little better, one step at a time. If theres something youve been wanting to do - go do it! Dont put it off! There will never be the perfect time. Youll never be prepared enough. The motto of the British SAS is: Who dares, wins. Be the one who dares. Dare greatly. Take risks. Be bold. Audacity: The willingness to take great risk. Jack Jones
