What if you climb up on the mountain and it gets too dark and you can't find your way back down because you don't have a flashlight to see the trail markers. And the bears are coming to roam the woods...

Yes, I want to push myself to make the world's best next-gen GUI for a payroll or real estate database. I may be able to go to as many VC pitch meetings, strategy meetings, client sales meetings to make my GUI the best and deliver maximum shareholder value and live to write a blog post about it (with max. karma duh).

But I can't live on the top of the self-ingratiating peak forever. The higher the peak, the lower the oxygen level, alas I wish I could live on top of that mountain blasting inspirational posts to all my Twitter followers for all time.

I have to come down eventually and go home, eat, take a shit and go to sleep. Even if I make it down safely evading the bears, I wonder can I go to sleep peacefully, or would I dare "not go gentle into that good night"?
