Welcome to The Edge of Never.
Whether we know it or not, all of us keep a mental list of things that we’ve decided we’ll never, ever, do in this lifetime. What’s on your list? Daring to be different in front of your peers? Skydiving? Skiing a 60-degree couloir? Public speaking in front of hundreds, thousands? Starting your own business? Changing careers when you have seniority and security? All the items on your list exist in your never realm, which may be where they’ll always live. Or maybe not. Many find that life gets extremely interesting at the boundary of this realm, and that sometimes it’s worth the risk to push past it. This frontier is a place I call The Edge of Never.
