I had this dream to bring refugees and astronauts together in the same room, and I had absolutely no idea how to make that happen. I sat on the idea for a couple of months because I was not sure about the financial sustainability and the business model around these dinners. But I knew it had to happen. I knew in my heart that the refugee astronaut connection was revolutionary. It had to happen. We needed to see what happens in the room when these very unlikely groups of people come together. One day I woke up and realized I just have to go. I just need to do this. I am going to pay for it myself. Let's go. Within days, someone heard about it and wrote me a check to fully sponsor the entire dinner and send a chef to cook food for 40, 50 people. The same thing happened in the following dinner, and the following dinner. Once you go and there is momentum, the energy is there, people feel it, and they want to support. If you don't know your purpose now, then stop what you're doing. Just stop. Quit your job. Do whatever is absolutely outside of your comfort zone and go on a different path and you'll be okay. The universe rewards you when you take a leap forward. But if you stay in your stability, nothing's going to happen. You got to take risks. That's what it takes.
