Stop Holding Back

In my previous entry I stated that I would be taking the top 10 family games we grew up with and applying them to sports entertainment. I am still working on that project, but I stumbled across something on TED that was very interesting. Many of you may have seen this, but Sebastian Thrun has created a driverless car. He mentioned at a young age his best friend was killed instantly in a car accident. This is what drove Sebastian to push himself to be successful with his driverless car. The technology is very inspiring and of course we can receive numerous messages from his success, but Sebastian has reiterated the meaning of the phrase “No Holding Back”. The driverless car is a robotic machine that is programmed to what it’s told. We are human beings that can do what ever we please. The sky is the limit, so why are we living our lives as if someone programmed us to do so.

So essentially, I want you to ask yourself what is holding you back? What is keeping you from greatness? An unfortunate accident in Sebastian Thrun’s life has allowed him to create a machine that will eventually save lives. In a very quick conclusion, I want everyone to know that the only thing that is holding you back is yourself. Put yourself out there more, see what happens, and maybe you will create a driverless car.
