A more provocative question than, “If you could do anything, what would you do?”
I think I’d start my own business (perhaps around something I’d discovered/invented) and write a book.
So, what would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?

Fly like superman.
Good one.
Now, what’s something physically possible you haven’t done because you were afraid of failing?
I would attempt to become extraodinarily wealthy without doing anything.
I would take my mac to get fixed and have it back in less than a day.
It bothers me when people misinterpret this quote. It’s my favorite; it is what drives me to succeed.
It’s not about “what would you do if you could do anything.” It’s about ignoring the fear of failure.
What would you attempt if you did not have the fear of failure holding you back? What would you do if you knew you could do it, if you knew you couldn’t fail? What would you enable yourself to do?
Not saying you don’t get it, the rest of the comments just bothered me.
…randomly found this through google. Sorry for bring out a year-old post.
Vilkacis – You articulated the point of the quote very well. Thanks for the comment!
