July 26th is "National All Or Nothing Day" and I think this one is pretty self-explanatory. Is there something you always wanted to do? A dream job, vacation, talk to someone who might not know you exist, act on Broadway, make a record, run a marathon, whatever really. Today is a day about making no wrong decisons because you are afraid of failing. Life is about trying and failing and learning a lesson from your trial so that next time you can go at it with a better idea of what you're doing and succeed. Without failure there would be no success. So what is it that is really holding you back. Most of the time it's just excuses you've built up in your head and made yourself believe that you are unable to achieve something great. This world wasn't created by people that make excuses, so get off your ass and completely go at it not only today, but each and every day. Just let today be the day you start it. It's like the old Chinese Proverb says. "Those that say it can't be done, should get out of the way of those doing it".
There are no known origins of the first official "National All Or Nothing Day". But don't let that stop you from following in the footsteps of those who were great before and start a new adventure today. It's always been about the journey and not the end result...
"All Or Nothing" by The Small Faces seems like a pretty appropriate theme song for this day and can serve as a little inspiration too.
