What's the ballsiest power-move you've ever made?

I'm starting to feel like it is really easy to go through life without having to make any truly big difference making decisions that change the outcome of your life. I'm scared that I'm never going to do anything to switch things up, and I'm just going to live the same boring middle-class suburban 9 to 5 working life as everyone else around me. I feel like I've had such an easy life. I haven't really had to work very hard for anything and I've just accepted the path of my life so far because it is easy. I've just let life happen to me and haven't ever really taken control of my own destiny and made a power-move. I want to switch things up and do something "stupid" because I want to.

What big, risky, possibly questionable decision have you made in your life because you knew you had to do it?

Quit your job? Changed careers? Killed a man? Asked someone to marry you? Moved away? Turned down a job for a girl? Turned down a girl for a job?

I want to hear some stories.

Sadly, none. I live a safe life because I am financially locked down at the moment. I think once my career is further down the road I will be able to make some risky decisions. I have to lay a solid foundation at the moment though.


There was this weekend in Tijuana though...

Moved across the country. The first few months were rough (new city, lots of expenses, hadn't made friends yet), but looking back it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Looking forward to moving again in a few years.

moved out of state to be a small fish in a big pond. changed careers. then after doing enough of that, decided to take a chance on my dream job- succeeded. fell and love and jumped despite having a successful bachelorhood. moved out of country with her.

destiny is what you make of it.

Following a divorce and making fairly decent money in management, I moved home from Nashville with nothing but my clothes and my dog. Joined the military and but myself through college in my late 20's. Essentially, put the brakes on and re-invented my life.

I'm on the OT every waking hour. Leaves little time for ballsy power moves.

Once yelled and cussed out my boss and got fired and the next day I came back like nothing happened to the weekly meeting.

Wore a toupee for a while.

Tried to drug my bosses drink.

You joined the military in your late 20's and went to college? Did you do ROTC or something? Interesting move.
