If you have been alive for any length of time you have probably heard these words uttered: \u201cI could have done that.\u201d Do you want to know the truth? You probably couldn\u2019t have done that, the fact that you said those words proves it. You\u2019re stuck watching.<\/p>\n
Doers do and spectators judge.<\/strong><\/p>\n Looking on from the bleachers, it\u2019s easy to assume \u201cI could have done that,\u201d (Yes, I am talking to you couch quarterback). However jumping onto the playing field reveals a view that is quite different from that of the bleachers.

Even as I write this I am aware there will be a number of readers thinking \u201cI could have written this article, and with better grammar.\u201d Great, do it!

We justify ourselves by pointing out mistakes, overlooking the gold that is actually in them.<\/p>\n
