I was recently in Idaho and its beautiful mountains and I wanted to tell you about a risk that I took. I am not typically an adventurous person but I knew we were coming up to the mountains so I rented a Jeep! I was so excited! The first time we went up this bumpy road it was so scary. We curved through the mountains with cliffs off the side and my stomach was clenched, because I was so afraid.

And it reminds me of life. The first time we do a lot of things can be very scary. I mean, the road was bumpy and we were jostled around everywhere and that’s what life is like. It’s bumpy and scary. But we came up here two more times because we had so much fun, and this time it’s not scary, it was so much more fun.

How many times in life do we have a negative experience and simply shut ourselves down to it because it’s uncomfortable?

So this Tuesdays #TruthBomb is that you must keep trying new things, be adventurous, and yes, also be uncomfortable. Because that’s where you grow.

Make it a great week!
