I've taken more "risks" than most, getting to a pretty comfortable position. Yet still I know that I've operated at maybe 20%, simply because I could.

I remember quitting one job (giving proper notice and doing everything right to strive for something better) and one of my coworkers lauded my bravery. It struck me because I didn't see it as bravery at all. More cowardly of rotting away in a 9-5 boring position.
