I just stumbled across this article this morning, what a brilliant thought provoking article! Well done sir!

Life is meant to be about living, not just existing. Life is an adventure and one needs to step out of their comfort zone, their insurance zone, and go against the flow of society – even if only in small steps.

Thanks Chad. Mind blown.

Once I truly owned the fact that my failures and setbacks (and willingness to go through them) would be an asset, nothing has been the same.

I didn’t realize just how much I (and peers) were missing out on, just because of an aversion to looking foolish. Giving away our power by valuing the opinions of others, over our own internal voice.

I think I actually enjoy the “failing” now, because it usually brings about the seeds for an even bigger leap forward. The new wisdom and hard-earned, applicable knowledge only comes when we willingly get INTO THE ARENA, and get dirt on our faces.

In reply to Gurjot. Well said. Winners do what they must to win, losers don't even enter the arena.

A damn thought provoking article with an interesting analogy. You’ve got to be prepared to fight all the little battles in life, no matter how worthless and insignificant they might seem. That way when you battles that are worth fighting for come your way, you can stand strong and be ready to face them.

Losers will, 9 times out of 10 adopt the attitude that, “If you don’t set any goals for yourself, you’ll never be disappointed in life if you don’t achieve them.” Winners on the other otherhand set high goals for themselves and embrace challenges, regardless of their fears.

Oh mate, I know where you’re coming from, but as you get older, you’ll find that just getting the piss to go in a single stream is hard enough. You’ll be a able to piss at 3 targets, especially if you wake in the morning with ‘the wood’ 🙂 Another good reason to keep the tesosterone levels LOW !!!1

Great and amusing read, as usual 🙂

Best
