Last call

I'm not really into metaphors...

Say there was a treasure that you aspire the most. And that treasure is somewhere on a mountain in a cave. At home, with friends, at work, this treasure is all you talk about.

Now, you finished work, had a beer with some pals, got home, had dinner. You just started 2 weeks of vacation.

What do you do next?

A. nice walk in the park
B. start getting your gear ready for a rocky and dangerous climb to the treasure

This is the only choice you will ever face.
At any moment you have your eye on a treasure.

And yes, you are what you do, you become your actions.
Complaining and getting comfortable will only push you away from your goal.

But hold on, remember get your freaking gear ready first and then start climbing the mountain, otherwise you won't make it to the base-camp. List what you need to get there, get it and then leave...

Big chances are that you will never find the treasure, but when you thought you just failed you might find yourself on top of a mountain you never dreamed of climbing before.

So what's next Wuxia?
