Without boring everyone with the story (it fits the thread but not nearly as exciting as dumping a suit for a third world photojournalist assignment), I went for it once. It fell apart but I don't really regret it because now, I can be content even tho "the mountain kicked my ass." I gave it my best effort and despite the consequences, it was exhiliarating.
The point is that I don't have a midlife crisis because I always did what I wanted to and was never afraid to walk away from everything and start over (I did it three times - never to run from where I was but to run to where I wanted to be).
My biggest fear (in the context of this conversation) isn't what will happen if it doesn't work out its living with the regret of being afraid to give it a shot.
If you have family obligations, my answer is predictably different.
