Joseph Campbell called it The Call to Adventure.
It’s that little voice in your head that whispers “why not you?” But after a brief moment of inspiration, you inner bullhorn rattles off every reason why not. Since you asked.
Because you’re not good enough. Strong enough. Fit enough. Smart enough. You know the drill.
But what if you did it anyway?
And what if you did it and failed miserably?
Would you give up, or would you pick yourself back up and try again?
Shelli Varela chose the latter. In today’s episode of The Quote of the Day Show, Shelli shares her incredibly inspiring story of going from working in a nail shop to becoming a firefighter.
The moral of the story …
“There is a hero inside of every single one of you waiting for you to say YES.”
What’s calling you?

Excellent. Very inspirational but I am disappointed I couldn’t access her training. Please email us the correct link. Thanks!
Thanks, Diane. The link is http://www.shellivarela.com/QOD . Sorry about that!
This is an especially wonderful DQ! I do wish the DQs were podcasts. Making the time to find them in my personal email every day, and then listening, is challenging. That I know I am missing most of them adds stress. Podcasts are easy to find, and I can listen in the car. One of my joys is driving around beautiful western Colorado where I live while listening to spoken words that inspire and motivate, like Shelli’s.
Thank you, Melanie! The QOD show is a podcast. You can find new and past episodes on iTunes, Soundcloud, and Stitcher anytime, anywhere. There’s also on this page — seancroxton.com/quoteoftheday . Thanks!
