At some point in life, we will be faced with the option to quit or keep going. To me quitting has such a negative connotation; nobody wants to be the person that "gave up". It is so easy to be motivated by the fear of giving up as opposed to the passion and love for whatever job/event/relationship it may be. Blaine is the co-founder of The Bridge and The Relevant Youth, both of which have been extremely successful here on Mizzou's campus. Despite the immediate success when starting the business, he made the tough decision to walk away. We discussed his journey with making this extremely hard decision as well as his spontaneous solo bike trip from L.A. to STL. The man decided to spend his summer after sophomore year riding his bike alone along the historic Route 66.
