Unfamiliar territory
+++++++++++++++++++<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you want a better understanding of who you are and what you’re capable of achieving? Venture into unfamiliar territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Put yourself in a situation where you’re forced to depend on your own knowledge, resourcefulness, and strengths. You’ll quickly find out what those strengths are, and you’ll figure out ways to improve upon them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That new territory could be physical, social, vocational, intellectual, or some combination. Whatever the case, it can energize you, heighten your awareness, and clarify what’s actually important to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though your current situation has its challenges, you’ve mostly figured out how to handle them. Think of what you could learn, and how much you could grow, from a starkly different set of challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let yourself experience how well you respond to those challenges. Enable yourself to learn and improve from that experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A little bit of adventure can add a lot of value to your life. Go where you haven’t been, and gain a deeper understanding of who you truly are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
