Day One Hundred and Eighty-Three:  Living Out Loud

Jess’s Advice Series #4:  Putting Yourself Out There

It doesn’t have to be on stage, or infront of a crowd of people, or in any way confrontation, but I suggest making a move at one point or another, preferably sooner than later.  Take a risk, jump out of your comfort zone challenge yourself.  It’s one thing to submit your resume to Tim Hortens, and another to a position that you relaly want.  What have you got to lose?  What is there to lose?  While thinking about graduate schools I am going to shoot for the stars.  A handful of stars but I’m still shooting for the big and the small, because really, what have I got to lose?  I suggest putting yourself out there in one shape or form sometime because if you fall you know you can do it, and if you succeed then you continue on to shoot for bigger stars.  It’s as simple as that.  I talk about it every day: why not?  Say yes, take the harder class, ask her out, do what you want to and make sure that it’s bold enough to satisfy yourself.  You’ll never know what would have happened if you didn’t even try.
