I have an idea of something that is lighting a fire underneath me, but I am being told I'm not being smart, that I'm being unreasonable, I'm being irrational, I'm being unwise, and I need to take the traditional or conventional path. What should I do? Here is the simplest answer that I can give you to that question. If you want to have a conventional life, stay on a conventional path.
If you want to have an ordinary life, stay on an ordinary path. If you want to have things in your life that are extraordinary, if you want to become extraordinary, extraordinary, if you will, you're going to have to get to a place at some point in time in your life, multiple point in time in your life, where you slide all your chips in and you say to yourself, let's fucking go.

Now, risk tolerance... seems to change for most people as they get older, and this makes sense. When you're young, your concept of basic time and how long a day, a week, a month, a year is, is really different than when you're in your late 40s and it's like, how in the hell is the calendar whipping by as if there is a tornado force winds just flipping through the pages?

You seem to have more things, you're a little bit generally more established in your path, and the idea of pushing all the chips in can seem overwhelming and overbearing. When you're younger, it seems as if there is less to lose. And I guess in the sense of things or collections, length of relationship, duration of things that you might have been involved in, sure, there is less.

And if you guys notice, hopefully, excuse me, I'm talking about everything other than risk to life, because I'll put that as a separate category. I'm talking about to the things that you have, whether it's a risk to a relationship, a risk to failing, a risk to losing your job, a risk to losing all of your money, fill in the blank.

When you get older, it seems like you have, well, it doesn't seem like you have, you have less time. When you have less time, man, getting people comfortable pushing their chips in, it's very difficult. For some people, it's impossible and they're never going to do it. And that is okay. Let me actually add this too.

There's actually nothing wrong with living what people would consider or call a traditional or conventional life. If you're happy, if you're fulfilled down that path, good on you. Live whatever type of life you want to. My point in saying if you want to be extraordinary, you're going to have to do extraordinary things. I'm talking specifically to these young people between the ages of 15 to 18.

Do you want to look back on your life and have a sense of regret for the things that you didn't try? Now, is there a risk in ignoring your parents' advice and ignoring your friends' advice? There is. But there's also risk in following every piece of your parent's advice, following every step of the conventional path, following every step of your friend's advice.
