<p>&#8220;The brick walls are there for a reason &#8230; to show us how badly we want something. The brick walls are there to stop the people who don&#8217;t want it badly enough. They&#8217;re there to stop the other people.&#8221;<br />
-Randy Pausch</p>
<p>As we embark upon our dream we have already started to encounter brick walls. I think our system in general (society) is not setup for us to do the things we really enjoy or want to do. For instance the rules for a &#8216;conforming&#8217; mortgage are written for people who live in sub-divisions not for people who want to live in the forest. Of course you can still get a loan, but it&#8217;ll be more expensive (higher wall).</p>
<p>I had a really cool feeling last night when I was driving home from work. I was thinking about moving to PR and how we are going to make it work and I got the overwhelming feeling that you can do anything. I know people say it, but I am starting to feel it. Its a good feeling. Then I saw this video today and it just re-enforces that you can achieve anything you want if you put your mind to it and work towards it.</p>
