What Would You Do if You Knew You Could Not Fail? Inspiring & Surprising Responses! Tribe Talk

At the start of the new year, we posed a question to our 30Seconds tribe: What would you do if you knew you could not fail? We already knew that our amazing community was talented and inspirational. But what could we do if we knew failure wasn’t an option? The responses were ambitious, exciting, inspiring and in some cases unexpected (ukulele flash mob!):

• Adopt a child.
• Travel the world. 
• Start a no-kill animal shelter. 
• Make a living as an actor, writer and filmmaker.
• Create a dream garden.
• Build a high-tech hospital that researches and heals the toughest health challenges.
• Go back to school.
• Write and perform a solo performance.
• Start a business.
• Start a ukulele flash mob.
• Be a consultant for special education teachers.
• Blog full time.
• Do stand-up comedy.
• Finish my degree.
• Bring people together in community and inspire each other.
• Foster/adopt terminally ill babies.
• Perform on Broadway.
• Open a restaurant.
• Write a book.
• Make a difference in the world.

Everyone’s individual responses were inspiring and so, too, were their comments to each other:

• "Wow can I relate to your answer. I try to remind myself I am not failing if I am doing what I love."

• "Failure is actually HOW we get to our dream life … So accept that failure is PART of the dream you want and GO FOR IT!"

• "This is really awesome and inspiring."

• "You can do it!"

How heartening to see not only everyone’s exciting dreams but also the support and encouragement they showed to one another. And who knows, maybe some of you will be motivated to pursue your dreams this year. If you do, we hope you’ll report back. We’d love to hear all about it. Just imagine what we could accomplish collectively!
