First of all, I love the way so many of you are coming alive, allowing yourselves to be truthful and jump into the unknown. Bravo!
Let me remind you the purpose of these risk taking exercises is not about the results. It's about the effort.
As a great 18th century kabbalist referred to as "the Old Rav" wrote, "The reason the soul must descend to this physical world is so it may be elevated still higher."
Breaking out of patterns and pushing against the inner force of gravity � ie. taking risks � is the means to this holy end.
Today, see if you can focus only on the action, rather than the result that you want to achieve through it. Put your intention in whatever the moment gives you.
