What my thesis really is
it was really just the willingness to fail
that got me to wherever I was trying
to get to. You know, because
if you're tight and you're scared of failure
and you're scared of looking ridiculous,
you never get to see your
real limit or you never get to
find the person that's going to catch you when you fall.
What I have found is the willingness to fail
has very rarely, if ever, led to actual failure.
It leads me to somewhere
great, somewhere unexpected and somewhere
dangerous and exciting.
Really it's just, if you can just
set aside your fear or really
you know, have the fear and do it anyway.
You're going to learn, you're going to win or you're going to learn, you know?
