COT:
Mario Andretti, a successful American race car driver, said, “If everything seems under control, you’re just not going fast enough.”
Sometimes it’s good to go fast and be open to taking risks. Do that with a grain of salt as we still want to live within our means and not get injured. The main point is to not get too comfortable. When you have too much control, it can take away from the excitement in life. Sometimes it’s good to leave things to wonder and gain unexpected experiences. Let loose and have fun every once in a while as it will fuel your happiness into realizing what is important to you at home and be proud of what you have worked to achieve.
