Try Something New

Picture
      “How do you know it’s impossible, if you don’t try?”

​     Sometimes we get really stuck in the same box, the same comfort zone for a long time. The habits we've created have grown and matured. It's important to keep learning new skills. You can start by watching tutorials on YouTube, taking classes, or just trying it without help. Stop being afraid to take a different track than the one you go on every single day.
  1. Find a new store to shop at.
  2. Read a new genre.
  3. Eat from a different culture.
  4. Take a walk in the mornings.
  5. Go to an open mic night.
  6. Find another coffee shop.
  7. Take a road trip.
  8. Paint something.
      These things don't have to be scary or drastic. See experiences as a part of life and change. This summer the new things I'm trying are dabbling in photography, some music composition, and creating choreography. Dancing isn't a hundred percent new to me, but I don't do it often at all so it counts!

     You may think, "I'm good here." No! Do not get comfortable, because life will hit you with a flaming fast ball out of nowhere. I encourage you, yes YOU to try something new and discover another fun thing. The world is too vast to stay in a four by four. Continue to expand, even by little measures. Maybe one day someone will need help decorating their living room and because you've been watching interior design videos on YouTube, you have insight (maybe). Say your friend is having a party and wants to bake a really cool cake, but doesn't know how. Thankfully, you've been taking baking classes and can help her. These examples sound far-fetched, but I hope the message still got through. I'm not saying do it for others, you could be in those predicaments. Doing something you haven't done brings a new kind of excitement because it's not what you're used to.

      So please try something new and encourage others to do so as well!
