On Bad-assery and Awesome-ocity

Bad-Assery and Awesome-ocity are very similar things. To be awesome or bad ass, all you need is to have the courage to fail.

There exists a clan of people who HATE awesome people. They can't stand it when people do things like follow their dreams, or attempt to change themselves for the better. The Clan only accepts people who conform to the social stigma that taking risks is a bad thing, that life is a ride that you take, that you HAVE to go to college if you want to be "successful". But what is success? Shouldn't success be something that each individual can determine for himself?

There was once a young man who didn't see the world like everyone else. The "New" world was not prepared for him, and he was not prepared for the "New" world; but he was ready for it. "But the time for action is always now, it's never later," he thought. It was  the uncertainty that was exciting to him. He heard the cries of others, that they don't want to "grow up," but rejected their mentality. He thought it conformed to the idea that to be grown up is invariably boring.  He thought to grow up was something that never stops, it was his time to make loud mistakes, to try and fail, to learn.  He saw his only limits as self imposed. How much of this boy is in you?

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped...living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become." - Steve Jobs
