My most recent leap was to say YES to teaching a community ed class about the how's & why's of local foods. I was afraid no one would show up, that I wouldn't know what to say...but it turned out wonderfully!

My leap of faith comes in the form of 15k extera race. I have not actually taken part in a trail race before. I did it and I found that finishing in good time was so rewarding. I set my self up to accomplish goals that may seem hard to accomplish but I make sure I have a path that leads me to were I want to be..I put in the work and then I love the memory that I created in both the accomplishment and and the journey....By the way how are you doing ? How are you feeling ? I hope you are doing wonderfull...Gloria

i am a SAHM mother of 4 daughters. i've been at home TWENTY years and yesterday i was offered a job- which i' going to take!!!!!

I was brave recently when I confronted an inappropriate friend of my young teenager. He needed to know where I stand so that he can stand in the right.
It was scary. I was brave.

My biggest leap as of late was that my husband and I moved to ND. He had no job, I had a part time job lined up, we are expecting our first baby in April, and were lucky to find a house that we loved! It was scary, but I am so glad we did it as my husband loves his job, we love our house, and are loving it here in ND!

Wow, do you seriously read all of these there are soooo many!
I guess my leap has been to stop being so quick to judge people. I didn't realize how judgemental I had become. Recently someone was telling about their problems and I didn't say anything, but my thoughts weren't nice. Then I thought Wow you have become so judgemental and have no impathy. So I try to listen more and console instead of judging. It is really a bad habit to break.

I took a leap and signed up for a Leadership class! Turned out to be a lot of fun!

I love the quote! My husband just lost his job so we are kind of being forced into leap.

My most recent big leap was going back for a PhD in Genetics. I started in August, and I am so glad I did. I knew I could do it!

I'm taking a leap and submitting more of my work and also opening an Etsy shop!

My biggest leap so far this year is my second year of college. After this year I will be a college graduate! YAY!

Recently I started todo 30sec. sprints on my treadmill. This is huge since I hate exercise.

Great post from your friend Alex!
I am currently working on a leap of faith regarding my husbands location in the Air Force. We may as a family be relocated, relocated out of the country or my husband relocated out of the country alone for a year. I am working through this for SO many reasons! With 4 children, one only 2 years old, it would be devestating for him to leave for that amount of time.
I constantly remind myself that families are faced with these issues everyday. Strength and courage are paramount in insuring our children are confident in whatever outcome we may be faced with.

The latest leap for me was calling up a lady who recently started going to our church and asking her out to lunch. I am pretty shy with this kind of thing - so it was a really big deal for me. We're going out tomorrow and I can't wait!

my most recent act of courage is getting married, not that i didn't want to. i am absolutely enjoying every minute of it. but i think this is one of the biggest leap i've made recently. thanks for a chance to play.:)

My most recent leap was stepping up to an exercise program. I need to get back in shape, for me and for my family. It hurts, I feel awkward but it's what this girl has to do.

We helped and encouraged our son to stand up to his 8th grade social studies teacher as he was teaching his one-sided opinion as fact. ~Tanya (Thanks for the GREAT give-aways)

I really needed to hear this today! Thank You,
Te reasons are many the answer is to see the courage in every single day!
Thanks Ali

Oh, I would LOVE Stacy's class!
We are in the midst of a possible leap. My husband has gone back to college. He is looking to change careers soon. We have lived in the same state for over 20 years. We are sending out resumes to many other states. Scary and exciting!

My leap of courage was to take a stand for myself and my feelings. I quit my job since I felt I was not being appreciated and will finish my Counseling degree. It will not be easy but it will be do able and in the future we will receive the rewards of our hard work.
