Well, fortunately I don't think any of the above items are good ideas. But, just speaking from my own experience, the list in the article is a most positive list for shaking things up in life. Particularly if you are feeling at a crossroads.

I should add that i have done several things on the above commenter's list and they did not work out as well as the items on the list in the article.

#5As a swimmer of rivers I'm not sure you should literally tell people to go jumping in rivers (though swimming around on the edge is fine). Literally jumping in to a river might be exciting to do but its also a quick way to die if you aren't prepared for that sort of thing.

Correct. It just so happens near my house there is a microscopic beach along the hudson river where people can swim. On a day i really needed it, I jumped in the river. I hadn't swum in years. And it was nice.

#7I liked a lot of these, but I am really uncomfortable with the idea of begging when you don't need to. You're lying to the people who donate to you and you could be depriving those who really needed that money. It would be better if you donated the proceeds to someone who really needs them.

#8my therapist told me I can’t do three things over the next year: change where I live, change my job, and change my relationship status
There are a lot of people who have had certain times in their life when they would really benefit from following this advice.

4. Commit a senseless violent act against an innocent bystander and enjoy the excitement of an extended manhunt.
Much safer to start a flamewar online.

#10Psychotherapy, which the author mentions in passing, is itself a pretty good suggestion in the "mixing things up" category.
When we're looking for meaningful change, the truth is that a little bit of outside feedback and guidance is often what is needed the most to affect it. Even intelligent people tend to strongly gravitate to what is comfortable when left to their own devices.
