D is for Daring to Dare

You may have noticed from my sidebar that I love collecting quotes, and I recently came upon another one that really touched me. I am a big fan of Maya Angelou, and I love this quote from her:

"I believe that the most important single thing, 
beyond discipline and creativity, 
is daring to dare."

As the description of my blog suggests, I spent a good part of my life considering lots of things "impossible" before I ever even tried them. So this quote really spoke to me, as I feel that daring to believe that something is possible is half the battle. 

Or at the very least, it's a good start! 

I wish I had started "daring to dare" sooner, but I realize there's no point crying over spilled milk. When it comes to regrets or past mistakes, I try to keep another quote from Ms. Angelou in mind.

"I did then what I knew how to do.  
Now that I know better, I do better."
