taking risks

Feb 15, 2012

My days are consumed with so much ‘busy work’ that I don’t have time to do the work things I really enjoy. I know. I know. Work is work… but some aspects are better than others for everyone. Right? I mention this because I’ve been hitting a ton of hours so I can cross a few things off the ‘to-do’ list to leave more time to dabble in creative business stuff.

So this week, I made it as far as Brownstown! And that fact has ZERO to do with today’s thought, which is… when you push yourself way past your level of expertise to the point of feeling uncomfortable to accomplish a goal — it’s risky because failure could certainly be an option. I’ve been outside of my comfort zone for the past few days working on one project in particular. I was in extreme discomfort WAY OVER MY HEAD. But as I look at the project finally taking shape… I’ve realized I’m much farther down the road than I thought possible. And, it feels really good. =)
