“but when I said that nothing had been done I erred in one important matter. We had definitely committed ourselves and were halfway out of our ruts. We had put down our passage money— booked a sailing to Bombay. This may sound too simple, but is great in consequence. Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way.”
William H. Murray - The Scottish Himalayan Expedition (1951)

“But at least learn your inability... and ask the remedy for it. Learn of those who have been bound like you... These are people who know the way which you would follow, and who are cured of an ill of which you would be cured. Follow the way by which they began...“
Blaise Pascal - Pascals Wager

The author’s expedition experiences cycling across America three times, and Airstreaming more than 40,000 miles are documented in the SCOTOMAVILLE program, proving an unconventional and effective self-help model with a convincing challenge: We can change our life experiences by gaming our own handicaps, challenging our shortcomings, and changing our false beliefs by taking on a Personal Everest.

 

"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands but seeing with new eyes.“A roughly translated citation from ‘La Prisonnière’, the fifth volume of ‘Remembrance of Things Past’ by Marcel Proust.
