I have a magnet on my fridge that says:
“Do one thing every day that scares you!”
I may not get a chance to do that every single day but I do try to scare myself as often as possible. Facing your fears makes you know that you are alive. Being safe is fine but don’t be so safe that you don’t enjoy your life. No matter what you believe you have to admit that there’s every chance that you only get one shot at life – so you may as well have fun while you’re here.
What have you done lately to scare yourself?

Fear is a restrictive emotion. It can keep you safe yet it can hold you back from your goals. If you let fear lead your life you are certain to miss numerous opportunities.
Today, do something that scares you! Ask the girl in sales out for a coffee. Jump out of a plane (preferably with a parachute). Visit that martial art school you’ve been considering. Watch a romantic comedy (they sure scare the hell out of me).
Perhaps, you need a little more excitement in your life. Facing your fears will get your adrenaline flowing.
