A Notion That Should Stop The Nation

Well here we are. Melbourne Cup Day.

A day when millions of people who normally do not care one little bit for horses, racing or betting stop and participate in an Australian tradition.

On a day where most of the nation stops to watch the Melbourne Cup, a lot of people are wishing/hoping/praying that they 'pick a winner'. What I'd like to suggest is that every one of you is capable of backing the REAL winner today... yourself.

I find it such a waste that people are willing to throw their money behind a horse, their opinions behind a political party, their support behind their friends, but are so unwilling to back themselves with a little faith when it counts.

Is there something that you want to take a stand on? A cause you want to champion? Something you want to do but never gave yourself the opportunity? Well I say this - place a bet on yourself and give yourself the chance to do something great! You'd be surprised what you are capable of!
