The great philosopher Nietzsche once said, “One must still have chaos in oneself to give birth to a dancing star.”
Who is this Nietzsche guy, and what is he talking about?
Well, Nietzsche was a German philosopher who wrote on an elite level way above most of us normal mortals. But putting that aside, I figured if a really smart guy is talking about the qualities, mannerisms, and thought processes of elite people, then I better listen and so should you!

What do you hear when Nietzsche says, “One must still have chaos in oneself to give birth to a dancing star”?
Let’s break it down. “One must still have chaos in oneself…” I think this means that we can’t be content with our present circumstances. We have to be a little unsatisfied. Maybe even angry enough to take massive action in our lives and create a life of good CHAOS for ourselves!

Let’s try the second part now. “…give birth to a dancing star.” Hmm... This sure does sound like something really BIG, doesn't it?
Can humans really do something as grand, large, and magnificent as, “give birth to a dancing star”? Can we really create our future lives in advance?
Maybe... I am pretty sure that almost every one of us is living far below our true human potential! Our true abilities are so vast, encompassing, and BIG that we can’t even begin to truly understand what we are capable of.
Maybe we all just need to have a little more faith in ourselves, and manage our chaotic lives just a little bit better. And then just maybe we too can empower ourselves to create something special and give birth to our own dancing star!
Now teens, go learn, lead and lay the way to a better world for all of us. Don’t be scared of chaos, for that chaos will lead you to great things if you let it. Survive, Create, and then Thrive! And once again, thank you in advance for all that you do, and all that you will do…
