I would like to give a kudos to anyone who has made a 180 in life, or seriously considered it. It is very difficult to embrace change, and I don't think the typical human being gets enough credit for standing up and taking life by the horns. Recent things that are pertinent to my life are moving, taking a new job, quitting a job you don't like, major priority shifting, any combination of the above...but the list goes on evolving, as life does.

Change all things that are familiar to you. Spend a lot of money in the process. Lose a lot of time moving, shuffling things around, sorting out personal logistics. Put your mind and body through the stress of adjusting. And, when all is said and done, will you be better off...? Only time will tell.

Regardless of what happens, an immense amount of self-confidence will be gained. Being nervous and apprehensive ahead of time is the worst part - once you've got that out of the way, you're almost too busy to be worried. You'll go, 'Hey, I could do that again if I had to!' Say it loud, say it proud. Maybe, just maybe, you liked the transition, and would do it again in a heartbeat.
