The “but” test
The “but” test
When you get a heart-led urge to take a leap of faith…
You’ll have to pass the dreaded “but” test:
“…but, I’ll get my bonus if I stay for another year.”
“…but, my lease doesn’t end for another six months.”
“…but, I don’t have enough saved up.”
In other words, the reasons not to bet on yourself get louder.
Which means doing it anyway will require a bold leap.
And no one ever said, “fortune favors the scared.”

This is me sitting in my empty living room on May 31, 2018, after selling off all of my possessions that didn’t fit into my carry-on bag. It was taken on the morning I went nomadic. You can read more about my leaps of faith in Travel Light. Maybe it will inspire you to take a bold leap or two of your own.
