Day 6

It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, "Always do what you are afraid to do."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

A couple of days ago i decided to sit down and write my bucket list, 100 things to do before i die. I know its a little premature, i am only 22 but i thought i want to do things in my life, i want to say i pushed myself into doing crazy things, to say i had adventure, to say i lived! I thought about the places i wanted to go, people i wanted to see, things i wanted to experience and what i wanted my life to look like. Things like 'Going skydiving', 'Having a mud fight' and 'Taking a holiday without baggage' (I know seems impossible to go on a holiday without a straightener and a makeup bag!)... I wrote down all the things I've always wanted to do, but was to scared to do because it was either silly or because I'm a bit of a wimp. The feeling of accomplishment when you do something you are afraid of doing is simply amazing (well thats after some of us have calmed down, because we worked ourselves up a little to much). So i challenge you... Write a goal to do something your scared to do, who knows you may surprise yourself! Fear is healthy, but so is overcoming it!
