If you knew you couldn't fail

If you knew you couldn't fail what endeavour would you embark upon immediately?
I got asked this question recently and came to the conclusion that I would put a lot more time into a business that I've just started and spend more time doing outdoor stuff with my boys but I wouldn't necessarily quit the day job, entirely that is.
O.k. that sounds lame. I'd quit, I was letting the fear of failing creep in.
How about you?

I'm going to open a Pub. I will create the menu, cook part time, and tend bar. There will be a small stage for performers. It will allow dogs in some areas.
I haven't done it yet because I'm too busy changing the world and earning the money to open it later when I have more time.

Ozone42, just checked out your site.
I can see me sat in that pub listening to your campfire guitar, if I'm ever in the states that is. Sounds good.

I know this sounds like an odd answer but I would make my home into a respite foster home for teenagers. It surprises even me, as I write this.

Change the world. Save what's left of the human race. But hey, I'm doing that now so really...I can't fail already. :)

If I knew I couldn't fail at an endeavor, I would probably start a company enforcing "green" development in every way possible. Make Green Energy streamlines and CHEAP, and easy for everyone to get. On top of it being good for the environment, I think it's just cool, too. :)

Great question.
Ask women to sleep with me? But that's probably not politically correct, nor what you had in mind.
Okay, maybe I'd save the world too then.
Like I said: great question but it scares me that I really can't come up with something I'd do...

I think it would be cool to own and run a coffee shop. Designing the interior and identity of it would be a really cool project. I'd imagine that it would be a place that I myself would like to go to and maybe get work done there.
Good question btw.

If I knew I wouldn't fail, I would quit my job to blog full time and finally open my silver smithing studio for income.

This is actually a tough question because I am a firm believer that you should never let the fear of failing stop you from trying something. My first instinct was to say I would go to Hollywood to try and be an entertainer, but realized fear isn't what is stopping me from doing that. So I guess if I knew I couldn't fail I would be doing what I do now because I wouldn't be doing it if I thought I could fail.
