feels good or benefits us, we do more of it.

Don't be afraid toexperimentNOW IS THE TIME TO TRY NEW THINGS

Let's face it. We're probably not going viral but we're also not going to

get 10,000 angry comments if we push the envelope a bit. Get out of

your comfort zone and post a fun video you like. Share an athlete

story that might be difficult to hear. It's in your hands and the results

can be awesome with just a little TLC.
