be bold

"Be bold - and mighty forces will come to your aid."

Excerpt from A Touch of Wonder, by Arthur Gordon...

"Be bold - that was no exhortation to be reckless or foolhardy.  Boldness meant a deliberate decision, from time to time, to bite off more than you were sure you could chew.  And there was nothing vague or mysterious about the mighty forces referred to.  They were the latent powers that all of us possess; energy, skill, sound judgement, creative ideas - yes, even physical strength and endurance in far greater measure than most of us realize."
