Well, let's start with the second sentence:

> Your path, your character, your life, should be the most unlikely, the most unexpected, the least predictable version you can make.

Now, I ask you, is that really what I want from my kid's school bus driver?

Huh. The post in effect is about a choice of one's career, about what one offers to the world. Of course the execution of the chosen career must remain flawless.

One must develop one's own unique offering. Don't let the world trap you in its box.

I came across a bus driver today that told me he owned a juice bar on the side, and invited me to visit. I thought this was most unexpected. This didn't make him a bad driver. His driving was fine. The point is that even a bus driver can live up to the author's ideal.
