Fearlessness: trying it out

In the three weeks since I wrote “how to become fearless” I’ve put my words to the test. My accomplishments may seem trivial but each of them required me to step out of my comfort zone. I have:

  • Negotiated more suitable hours at work
  • Flown half-way around the world on a whim
  • Found and caught up with friends I hadn’t talked to in ten years
  • Handed out business cards to people I met
  • Held many “uncomfortable conversations” with others
  • Let myself go and have fun

Here’s what I’ve learnt: fearlessness is very addictive. Its also self-reinforcing: the more you face your fears the easier it becomes.
