Thats the problem for many, looking at the pay check, checking it against their outgoings and thinking, "I can't afford to leave this job and go do something else" . If these guys would only give up their (and their family's) expensive habits and focus on the fact that they only have one life, and its running out, I doubt if most would continue.

Either we play it safe, stay within our comfort zone and avoid the fear that lingers or we are willing to take risks, live with purpose and passion and snub our nose at fear. Moment to moment we can live freely and courageously. Good stuff happening at this blog.
