Imagine you're 90 years old, sitting in your rocking chair and looking back at your life.

Do you think you'll have any regrets? If you continue living the way that you're living right now,

will you truly be fulfilled when it's all over?

If the answer is no, then ask yourself why? Why would anyone reject the calling to become what they

And when that voice in your hands says your pursuit is far-fetched, too difficult, too risky,

Never give up on something you can't go a day without thinking about. We all go through that.

Not doing the thing we know we need to do. And instead taking the safer path that has a reward

visible at the end. But that's not your path. Yours is the crazy looking trail on the edge of a cliff

with giant gaps and no end in sight. Go there.

Go where you have less comfort and security, but more passion and possibility.

And the more vulnerable you feel, the weaker the machine becomes until it breaks down completely.

There's a certain freedom in that. The kind that comes from knowing that whatever force
