If I’m honest, the habit that’s improved my life the most is learning to do things even when I’m afraid. Not reckless, not impulsive — just willing. Willing to try, willing to leap, willing to risk being seen. Fear used to convince me to stay small, but now it’s just a feeling, not a verdict.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
And the moral is … attack life. YOUR life. The one you want. Not the one someone else dreamed for you. Not the one you feel obligated to live. And most certainly, not the one you don’t want to live. Make no excuses. Be.
And that’s all I have to say about that.

DISCLAIMER: These are my personal experiences and opinions. Nothing here is medical, nutritional, or therapeutic advice. Also, I’m a writer and an editor. And I try my best to make sure every post is articulate and free from errors. However, being that I edit my own work—and it’s next to impossible to properly edit your own work—I admit, occasionally there may be an error or two I miss. But doing so doesn’t make me an idiot so don’t be mean. Just smile, pat yourself on the back for finding an error and be glad you’re not the only one who makes mistakes sometimes … xoxox
