That quote and this video have been hugely inspiring to me the last couple days. I realize that the quote in the title could be interpreted as super negative, and suicidal... and that's probably even how it was intended. I've been thinking of "pulling the trigger" more in terms of taking some fucking action already. Most of the problems in my life have been caused by my anxiety over taking the first step. In anything really... often, doing nothing is less stressful than the idea of choosing wrongly, or failing at something I care about. This causes what I like the call a vicious hate-spiral of disappointment. And the more angry I get at myself for failing to do something, the less likely I am to get something done.
Welp, as the video points out, time is short. And I plan on making the short amount of time that I have to myself amazing. I'm pulling the trigger on a bunch of things, from going back to school, to expanding my business.
Here's the link the Coheed and Cambria song that quote is referencing. Listen to it. It's amazing.
