			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An old friend and I used to talk about the idea of &#8216;pushing the button&#8217;. </p>
<p>Lemme esplain: say you&#8217;re planning a big life-changing travel trip &#8211; like a year in India or something &#8211; you sit there with your airline tickets all reserved and ready and you know you&#8217;re about to spend thousands of dollars and have untold wild adventures in unknown lands, yet you sit, hesitating over the mouse with your finger slightly raised and beads of sweat building around your temples. </p>
<p>Nervously, you finger the button, but don&#8217;t push it. You&#8217;re flirting with it. You get up, have another cup of coffee. You sit back down and the &#8216;complete transaction&#8217; icon stares you in the face, but so does the &#8216;close browser&#8217; button. The action to commit is so clear &#8211; just *push the button* &#8211; make friends with the unknown future, extend your hand, embrace it. And then, finally, once you do, you&#8217;ve crossed to the other side. Take a deep breath. You&#8217;ve committed and there&#8217;s no turning back. But it feels damn good. You&#8217;re all in. </p>
<p>Rare are the opportunities in life as clear as this. Go with it.</p>
