Try something new

If what you’ve been doing is no longer challenging, try something new. Life gets boring when you stay within the limits of what you already know. Make a habit of trying new things. Life is about taking chances. Life begins at the end of our comfort zone. In the end, we only regret the chances we didn’t take.

Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg tried new stuff. Life is a big experiment. If you adventure, you might either win or learn a new lesson. But if you don’t try something new, you’ll always work for those who dare the unknown. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor.

Do one thing every year that scares you to death. Refuse to be held back by the fear of failure. Don’t just build castles in the air warming your couch. Thinking and doing are not synonymous. Creativity is thinking up new things. Innovation is doing new things. The line between dreamers and doers is action.

Nothing is crystal clear at the starting point. You don’t need to have everything figured out. Allow faith to lead you and everything will fall into its rightful place. Dots eventually connect for those who exercise their faith. You don’t know who you are until you see what you can do. Your life is an adventure.

That quotation aptly reveals the secret of dominating any market - the ability to do your duty and a little more! The '...a little more' is even more important than doing your duty because that's what really gives you a competitive advantage. Its not just enough to do your duty, you'll have to do it a little more if you want to defile the odds and dominate the market.
