I enjoyed the post, but think I would've gotten more out of it if the title was more congruent with the content. I was expecting a lament or postmortem (which hooked me in), but the story was more like an exultation. Congrats on your success, I hope your upcoming book will help more people fruitfully pursue their dreams.

Glad to hear you enjoyed it. I guess I figured admitting I was scared on a regular basis, and wondering whether doing this might kill me would be considered somewhat a lament.

But of course I think I'm doing the right thing – after all, I've put everything I have into it. If I felt like I had a choice, I'd probably do something differently.
