Every time you step outside the little area of comfort, you have a set path to follow. But, do you dare step outside that? What can make you step outside that? Money? Power? How much do you dare bend the rules? Are you even aware of the punishment that awaits you when you choose to do so?
What powers do the wild hold over us? Why are we afraid? Why do we think that stepping beyond our comfort is not something you would want to do normally? There lurk in the shadows the riches and thorns untold, the jewels that lure us, the beasts that challenge us to slay them. That is why we take the risk --- because the thrill is in the chase, the decisions to be made along the way, without thought or concern. They may turn out to be poor decisions, but at the end of the day you will know that you have made decisions yourself, and you alone are responsible for what you have chosen. Therefore, be it the jungle or the sea, the wilderness beckons --- calling out to you to step up and see the outcome. You must leave your seat, gather your tools, and run: run head on into the waters or the storm, and face the brute! Let it toss you ten thousand times: stand up and return back, and come back to fight it off yet again! Who cares what happens? You rule, you rock... and you are the master of what you see around yourself. Go, go go... what are you waiting for?

Good post.
U mite have heard abt this story:
A frog is put into a pot and the pot is boiled slowly. After long time the frog finally realises the heat and jumps out.
Same frog is put into a pot half as hot, but it jumps out immediately.
The moral of the story is , Its difficult to jump the comfort threshold level , we think what we have rite now is ok and not bother to take risks. Necessity is the mother of invention.
Thanks, arun... that story was a good reminder.
