A comfort zone is a hell of a spot. While I must admit I have talked a lot about getting myself out of this place, I have a funny way of adapting to it. There’s a voice in my head that tells me that things will work themselves out, and most of the time they pretty much do. You may be wondering what I do when the universe does not exactly help me with working out an uncomfortable situation. Well, I figure out a way to escape it. See, just a few months ago (maybe a year now?) I use to love to run. Kind of like Forrest Gump. Ever since I’ve stopped, I have found myself running from uncomfortable situations. I’ve gotten quite good at it too. Whether it come to a situation at work or something in my personal life, I think I’ve developed a habit. That’s something I’ve figured out and with a little bit of work, I’ll change that. I want to be uncomfortable as hell while staying relaxed at the same time. I want to battle my anxiety that comes over me when my mind tells me that x and y could go wrong because normally x and y do not go wrong. All the time I spent worrying could have been spent enjoying and learning. Things go wrong all the time. Come to think of it, most situations in which something went wrong resulted in a breakthrough for myself. This is why I’m going to dedicate my entire 2018 to doing something that scares me every two weeks (if not more). My goal is to not overthink, just do. My idea is reaching out to my friends via social media in order to gather ideas. Obviously, the goal of this is not to do something stupid or unnecessary. Behind each single task, there has to be a lesson. We can call it my science project of 2018 and we’ll see how I do as the year progresses. I guess I’m just trying to test how they say that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. Cheers to 2018.
