A little advice for all of you who have responded: 

 

Whatever it is you want to do, as soon as you can do it, do it.   Life is short.   As you get older, you get more cautious and lose your sense of adventure.   Experience kicks in and you just want to be safe and well fed.   Instead of living in the moment, you think of everything that could possibly go wrong.  

 

If you can do it now, do it now.  Get going!

 

I feel like I can give some advice because I am probably a lot older than most of you.
