Ask HN: Help me find an article that I read on here about a year ago?

2 pointsby JamieF1almost 6 years ago
About a year or so ago, I read an article that I really enjoyed and want to pass on to people (and read again myself!). I can&#x27;t find it and was wondering if anyone on here knows the article I&#x27;m talking about. The gist of it was:<p>- It was an article about change in your life and how you&#x27;ll never know what you like until you take a risk of changing your life.<p>- It mentioned something along the lines of &quot;what are the chances that you were born in the town&#x2F;city that you will enjoy the most, work in the job that you will enjoy the most etc&quot;<p>- It also talked about how even if you don&#x27;t like the new thing you&#x27;ve tried, you&#x27;ll never know that unless you try it and by doing so, you may realise what you currently have is exactly what you want.<p>Any ideas? I really can&#x27;t find it :(

Using your quote for the article and adding site:<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com</a> to the search criteria I was able to find this request for help and the following links<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=17595545" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=17595545</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=18682579" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=18682579</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=19062504" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=19062504</a> <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=19891084" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=19891084</a>

using the string unless you try it and the site criteria as below <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=20382164" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=20382164</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=20388428" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=20388428</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=20368708" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=20368708</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=19822100" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=19822100</a><p>Remember google tracks your every search, but in general can be very helpful
