Goal Three: Take Risks

Standard

My third goal of 2012 is to take more risks!  Now I’m not thinking anything really dangerous or life-threatening…but more of small steps or actions that I’ve always been curious to try.  I want to push the boundaries of my comfort zone…I want to live just a little bit more! 

Here are a few of the “risks” I’m hoping to take this year:

  1. Wear Red Lipstick…and hopefully not feel like I’m playing dress up!
  2. Go to a movie alone…or better yet, eat at a sit down restaurant alone (eeps!)
  3. Pursue my dream of going back to school…stop planning & just do it!
  4. Wear polka dots…or stripes, neon, animal print…mix it up!
  5. Invest in the stock market!
  6. Try leaving the house without any make-up on…this makes me cringe a bit!
  7. Stop being afraid to speak my mind…instead be more transparent with my emotions!
  8. Take a Zumba class…don’t sweat my uncoordinated moves, just sweat!
  9. Wear a two-piece bathing suit…it’s been years (years & years) since I have!
  10. Go on blind date…or two!
  11. Learn to scuba dive…totally scared but also intrigued to try this out!
  12. Save more money…I know this isn’t a risk, but sometimes I believe that by setting money aside I miss out on the fun now!
  13. Go mountain climbing…ok, well maybe just hike more!
  14. Start believing that I’m worth being in a relationship…I do have something to give!
  15. Move into a place all by myself…no roommates, yikes!

Are you a risk taker?  What are some “good” risks you would recommend taking?
