[QUOTE="Karak, post: 6040035, member: 6700170"] Yes. Without a doubt and I always have been. I am on my second KickStarter and it is almost fully pledged after just 2 days after the first failed. I don't think I can learn or enjoy life without trying it. I try to live by the motto "Live a life others dream about." Not in a selfish way but in the kind of way where even I used to see someone and say, "Man I wish I was doing that." Since I was 18, ended up with cancer and lived through it, I have been like this. If I want to do it I do it. Jumped out of airplanes, raced cars, tried to write 2 books, did the 1st KickStarter, now on my second, left a comfortable job for another because it just felt right. Many of the skills I have did indeed come out of gaming. Attention to particular details, multi-tasking, identifying important steps and thinking outside the box. I don't want to ever ever look back and say, "Damn I wish I would have..." The recent Kickstarter is probably one of the scariest things. Because running a project about something I knew very little about was scary. I took a year to prepare, studied, learned, listened, studied some more. Its paying off. I teach martial arts, competitive archery, and write and sell my own music. Why ever look back and feel any doubt about what you did? I think that most of the time, not all, things do end up paying off. Life can through you a curve ball sure, but in the end you can still hit the :):):):)ing curve ball out of the park. [/QUOTE]
