Think about the last time you had to settle for a back up plan or plan b. How'd that go for you? Probably pretty good. Worked out and you have some general level of contentment. You good with that?
Seriously, think about it.
What I really wanted didn't work out, so I settle for this...which wasn't bad...
You want a life that matters?
It will require passion...which will require death to your plan B
Refuse to settle
