Run from what’s comfortable

Forget safety.

–Rumi

Live where you fear to live.
Destroy your reputation.

Be notorious.

I have tried prudent planning long enough.
From now on I’ll be mad.

There comes a point in your life when you may as well live your life.

Sure, prudence and care have their place, as does safety.

Still, look back on your own life and see which events have been the most wonderful, memorable, and lead to you expanding. Were they the ones you planned out in advance? Were they the ones where you had all your ducks in a row? Were they ones where you had everything you needed and moved ahead only when you were ready?
