Surfing has been described as akin to riding the perfect storm.
A simultaneous occurrence of events that provide an opportunity to become one
with nature while experiencing the magical feeling of flying we imagined as
kids along with the sense of achievement that we crave as adults. Total
fulfillment on all levels; hence the addiction.
Now before you ask what this has to do with life, business,
or anything other than surfing, take the following quotes and don’t think of
them as simply talking about literal waves and obstacles, but metaphorical ones
as well.
“It’s not tragic to die
doing something you love.” – Mark Foo
“Waves are not measured
in feet and inches, they are measured in increments of fear.” – Buzzy Trent
"We're all equal
before a wave." –
Laird Hamilton
“My passion for surfing
was more than my fear of sharks.” – Bethany Hamilton
"There is nothing,
nothing, more sad than a surfer who used to surf." – Unknown author
"You can't stop
the waves, but you can learn to surf." – John Kabat-Zinn
“The best surfer out
there is the one having the most fun.” – Phil Edwards
Marinate on
these quotes and see how they can enhance your life in every arena. Now, if you
are a surfer, then you can use them twice as much. And while you’re pondering
those immortal words, cruise on over to your favorite surf shop online and grab
some new surf accessories like a surfboard
bag, a few surfing
wetsuits, or if you’re in the market, a brand new surfboard to ride the
waves as you contemplate life.
