Aim Higher—Conformity Isn’t Worth It

Roadtrips down the east coast to outrun Canadian winters. Sailing prohibition-era bootlegger boats alongside massive pods of dolphins in the Sea of Cortez. Surviving three-months in the Mexican wild with little more than a knife and faded map. These are stories of modern day adventure, pulled directly from my life.
I’ve always sought-out these exciting and uncommon opportunities. Partly because I love the thrill of new experiences, but mostly because I don’t believe men are supposed to be stuck behind a desk 40 hours a week, wasting away the best years of their lives.
However, the past year has placed incredible demands on my time. First the push to complete university (thankfully accomplished), and now real estate school has let the dullness and numbness of conformity creep into my life—and it’s left me incredibly restless. Don’t get me wrong, I recognize the importance of formal education and the necessity of formalized work structure, but I can also see that if it’s not exciting—it paralyzes me.
Well no more! It’s time to aim higher.
Starting as of now, I’m ready to kick back into adventure mode. Meeting and interviewing incredible people, making big moves (hopefully with big reward), and embracing opportunity as it comes at me. I’m launching two small ventures, which have been in production for ages, and I’m praying they’ll give me the financial freedom to really live life as it was meant to be experienced—to its maximum potential!
Do you know of any incredible opportunities abroad (sailing/trekking/business/etc)? Is there an adventure you’ve always wanted to go on (or maybe did experience)? Is your brain teeming with ideas while you read this? Then I want to hear from YOU!
Any insight, suggestion, or opportunity you make me aware of would be greatly appreciated! The wilder the better. Just leave a comment below or e-mail me at sunny@newrichproject.com
Don’t hold back, I’d love to hear from you!
