2014.08.26 On Risk-Taking

“And then there is the most dangerous risk of all – the risk of spending your life not doing what you want on the bet you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later.” ― Randy Komisar, Monk and the Riddle: The Education of a Silicon Valley Entrepreneur

I am so worried that I wont be able to make heads or tails of my life. That I won’t make a difference, that my life won’t matter. I grind every day to make money doing something I have no real passion for. The only thing that keeps me going is staying up late working myself into the ground in the empty hours of the day

I frantically fill up the empty hours of the day with more work–an attempt to build something that I can eventually create a life of meaning around.

Am I being complacent? Am I playing it safe?
