This world we live in is full of many different things. People, opinions, styles, creations, surroundings, influence, education, language, religion, flavor.........the list goes on. Its never ending and no matter how many years pass, we will encounter a lot of the same things. If we don't change our atmosphere from time to time, we don't learn too much, we are secluded from possibilities & we don't venture out of our comfort zones to find something excitingly new. A lot of people become accustomed to what they already know & stay there. I am not one of those people. I like adventure and spurt of the moment. Not knowing the outcome of something keeps me interested. If I were to know the outcome of everything I was about to do, it wouldn't be fun, my imagination wouldn't be creative & I would be a boring person. Who wants that?
I'm the type of person who loves new things. I go places some people won't dare go & I try things people judge by hearsay or by the looks of it. I'm a risk taker. I never know what I personally feel about something unless I try it for myself. It creates inside of me a place no one can come in & destroy or take away from me. I also put myself in situations that I may be uncomfortable in to make myself stronger. I learned how to step out of my comfort zone by letting go of relying on other people to follow. I never found adventure in following someone else's footsteps. I found adventure in doing my own thing. In taking control of what I want for me. I believe in myself enough to know that even if I am uncomfortable in a situation or a certain place, its not permanent & I do not have to do it or go there again. I am a dreamer, someone who believes anything I want to do in this life can be done as long as I believe in myself.
I have been created by my surroundings. The thing's I've done, seen, been & the places I will go, all have a place in creating the person I am today & who I will become in the future. I am the new rings around the center of a ripple effect that continues to grow. I cannot stay in a constant state of stillness. I am constantly moving & learning so I may share what I have done & learned with others so in turn, they too can pass along something new to someone else. Its a continual drive inside of me to help myself become better so I may help others as well.
One will never know how much they can become or do until they have stepped out of thier comfort zone & done something they never thought possible. To have the ability to see opportunity is to know when you are in the right place at the time you are there and just do it. No one ever learns standing still. When we were babies we didn't give up on learning to crawl, walk & talk. We didn't stop when we fell...we kept trying. It was an adventure & sometimes it was painful but we made sure we got there. Giving up was not in our nature when we were first learning. So what has stopped so many people from doing so? Negativity, loss of belief, friends, family.....our SURROUNDINGS. It has stopped us dead in our tracks from trying anything & personally, its annoying.
Kick it to the curb. This life is short. We do not know what tomorrow holds for us & we need to try new things while we are here. What you deem impossible today, try tomorrow. Make a new chapter in your life that requires you to change your surroundings. Not until you discover new things can you truly feel exhilirated & know that leaping out of the boundaries you've set around yourself actually sets you free. I will do more for myself today if I take one step out of my comfort zone & do something brand new. Ignore "You Can't". Drown out "Impossible". Start to absorb "I Can" and "Possible." Do it for you, do it for adventure, do it because you can and do it because you believe.
