Risk

There is always risk involved in things worth doing. We can play it safe. Hang out backstage. Wait for someone else to say their lines so that we aren't out there improving.

We can parrot others ideas. Play the prescribed roles. Make sure we are always dressed in costume.

To be who you really are and to do the job that you are uniquely wired to do requires you to go off script...and sometimes that creates tension between ourselves and others or simply fear within.
