Passion, Juggling, Beatles
Go ahead and click on this video below...allow yourself to sit back and watch the whole thing. Indulge....
Now, I don't know if this guy makes a lot of money at this, or if he rates his life as a 10 but gosh, he sure does seem passionate and alive! He sure does seem like he must love what he does.
I'm imagining him thinking about this idea, and then actually learning how, practicing, failure, trying again.....talk about a commitment!
I bet when he shares with some people what he does they think he's crazy....he sure made me (and my family) smile....
With a smiling heart,
Laura


The second thing I thought when I saw the video (the first was just stunned amazement) was how many balls Chris Bliss must have dropped on his way to becoming the master juggler he is, and even just to practice for this performance. It's that whole learning, practice, failure thing that you mentioned, Laura.
It looks perfect to us, but we have to know that he wasn't born juggling perfectly. It took a lot of time (hundreds, probably even thousands, of hours in developing this skill). And, along the way, he dropped some balls. Maybe he dropped tons of balls. Maybe at times he even despaired. Yet, he must have continued on because here he is now, an incredible juggler.
I always go to the place of how this applies to my life. How many balls do we have to drop to become masters?
So, let's go out and drop some balls. And soon, we'll be masters, too.
