We’re all afraid of stepping up and asking for what we want.  We’re afraid to ask our boss, or our parents, or our spouse, or our friend, or the gatekeeper to a wonderful new opportunity. We’re even afraid to ask our kids.

Why?

What do we stand to lose?

What is the worst possible thing any of these people can tell us?  NO?  BFD!

I found this video on Facebook this week and nearly wept.  Can you imagine asking such a thing, then being handed the dream of a lifetime?

May it give you courage. Go after what you want by opening your yap and asking for it.
