Comes with the territory
Hi
Though it’s seemingly counterintuitive,plan some spontaneity into your life. Every once in a while, set
aside a time to just let life take you where it wants. For example,
you could leave an hour in your calendar and simply start walking.
See what you come in contact with. You’ll be introducing a
little variety, which can help you see that a world without backto-
back plans isn’t necessarily terrible. You could also take a bold
action by stepping into a particular role because chaos comes with
the territory. Put yourself in a situation where it’s not possible to
control everything—volunteer at a shelter or in a kindergarten
classroom.
What does the author mean by saying "chaos comes with the territory"? Maybe that chaos is an inseparable part of spontanity?

The author is saying that you should choose to do something that is chaotic. The use of "because" makes the sentence unclear, replace it with "where". Spontaneity doesn't have to be chaotic, the author advises that one of your spontaneous choices should be something more difficult, more chaotic.

Thanks for the answer.
And how about this part from the text above: For example, you could leave an hour in your calendar and simply start walking.
Does it mean: Put aside an hour in your daily schedule for walking/having a walk.

Yes, but in the sense that you should go somewhere new, somewhere you haven't planned.
