can't order your ferrari in a custom color?

house have seven bedrooms too few?

sick of ramen noodles for dinner?

what's keeping you personally from getting where you want to be?

risk averse?
scared?
lazy? (this one's me  ;D  no reason I shouldn't have second office)   
truly content now?

it's the fear that holds me back
and the what if's

it's much easier to work for someone else
starting my own design firm is risky
what if the clients don't come?
what if i fail?

riding on the track, same deal
what if i fall an wreck my bike?
what if i fall and disable myself?

it's also the same with having a baby
what if...

i'm not sure if i'm ok with being a chicken,

but, it's where i'm at :)

Complacency, fear, previous bad decisions, lack of confidence, bald and overweight, I've got an endless list.  I'm going back to the venting thread.

I didn't know I was supposed to get 'somewhere'.

Probably fear of the unknown more than the others.

Lack of confidence.

I am not afraid to fail.

It used to be the fear of failure.

Then it became the fear of success.

Now? 

F*ck fear!

I'm balls-to-the-wall.  Burning the candle at both ends again and trying to light the mo-fo in the middle.

I'm off to the tattoo artist tonight to get a new one.

and what would a thread be without a jack  [evil]

Hi Stu!
Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

Hi Jim.  Umm...  keep it down, OK?  You might anger one of the 'other' Mods.  ;)
