What would you do... if?


Recently I was giving a presentation to a group of savy property managers.

I asked them one question: 

"What would you do if you knew you could not fail?"

I also told them about my most recent climbing expedition to the depths of Fiordland and showed them pictures of snow, white-out and climbing on the front points of my crampons.  In fact, I am just about to write more about that - with pics - in my next eNewsletter so make sure you are on the list to get it.

But it was what happened AFTER I had left that really blew me away.

Here is the email that the Manager sent me a week after the presentation (the person's name is changed so that she doesn't freak out too much!):


"Hi Sarah

Many thanks for the awesome presentation – the team loved it.  You are a remarkable person.

You’ve touched Helen's life – she came into my office after the meeting and said, “That was great – I’ve always wanted to tandem skydive but I have been too scared to try it – I think I’d like to try that next year”. 

When she left my office,  I hopped on the internet and booked her an 8,000 ft tandem skydive which arrived on her desk the next day with the message “Dear Helen, Go For It”.  The look on her face was priceless!  Anyway, her boys are saying that if you don’t do it mum, we will.  There is no way she is letting them!  Haha!   -  Professionals, Oxygen Property Management"

How cool is that??  It certainly made my day.

So what about you?  What would YOU do if you knew you could not fail?  And if you knew that the only thing holding you back from doing it was fear?

Let me know what comes up!

Wishing you adventurous holidays
Sarah Wilson
