Where has the time gone?
2 comments | posted Jul 29
Need to get out of the rat race. I can't stand sitting in my office anymore. I want to see the world through my own eyes instead of the computer screen.
I don't even have enough backbone to "call in sick" just to get some extra sleep. I don't really sleep anymore at all. I'm like Christian Bale in The Machinist (minus all the creepy talking to yourself stuff). I don't want to end up regretting the fact that I have so many regrets in my life. I want some adventure and I want to take some risks, but where do I begin?

Find out what you want to do with your life, as in work wise, and then pursue it? I think that's a good place to start.
If you want to travel and see the world, and that's the top of your list, find yourself a job which will let you do it! To just throwing out suggestions here, but a travel-guide could be something.
If you want a completely different job, but still want to travel, put aside money so that you can do it during your vacations.
I think the most important thing is just figure out what you want, and after that I think that you'll discover that making a plan to get it isn't the hard part at all =)

Taking risks has always been a scary thing for me. Finding a balance between being responsible and taking off to experience the world is extremely hard. Especially in today's economy. Small risks a few years ago are bigger risks now.
I know what I would like to be doing. Scared to try. I think that's the hardest part. Knowing what you want but being too afraid to go get it. Being scared of failing.
