not long ago I came across a quote that said the biggest risk in life is to take no risks at all and for the past few months you can say that I've been taking that advice to Heart I started traveling again made new friends [Music] got around to doing a lot of things I said I would do I am gonna go get a tattoo there were opportunities late nights heartbreak growth and new possibilities [Music] is that what we're here for I was nervous and excited and scared most of the time not knowing if things would
work out or even if I was making the right decision oh my gosh should I go to New York but through the past few months there has been one idea that has truly changed the way that I've been approaching life lately and that is the idea say yes now figure it out later [Music] okay we're catching up so I wanted to talk about this idea of figuring it out because it has been relevant in my life for the past few months this idea of figuring it out is not something new to me from dropping out
of school to traveling solo quitting my nine to five to pursue freelance each one felt like one big risk after another one giant leap of faith if you will that set me on the trajectory that I am on now and through that whole time I was like okay just make the decision and you'll figure it out when you get there you know kind of having this faith in yourself and it was interesting because when the pandemic happened everyone's lifestyle like completely changed at least temporarily and I felt like I was in a very comfortable bubble
I wasn't traveling I wasn't meeting new people I was working from home and I knew that in a way it was good but at the same time I didn't want it to start making me say no to things you know being in this like bubble I just knew that at some point I was going to have to start participating in life again and past few months felt a little bit like that [Music] scary to put yourself out there to take a risk or opportunity and not know how it's going to play out [Music] but I
realized there's so many micro chances so many different universes and timelines and I don't want to miss out in this one in a lot of ways the last few months have felt like coming back to the idea of figuring it out foreign [Music] let's go I think I just needed that reminder in my life I needed that all that energy just come back in I think to me figure it out ultimately is like if you're gonna take the risk then just trust yourself trust yourself that you will have your own back in whatever situation that
you find yourself in that that you won't let yourself down in the end and I think that is like the core of it it is a bold statement you know to say something is changing your life but truly like I think back on the last couple of months even and the amount of times that I could have said no I can't even imagine what would have happened if I if I did say no and so I think that there's a time to to say no to some things but there's also a time where like you
don't want it to hinder your growth and I feel like that is a season that I'm in wow [Music] this has been such a key thing and so many decisions that I've made so far in my life but I think it's just part of it to Lose Yourself a little along the way to learn to let go and that's okay we find our way back eventually as I go into adulthood navigating new things in my life this is something that I just never want to lose about myself this energy I figure it out take the
risk and trusting yourself at the end of the day [Music] [Music] juicy juicy [Music] there it is permanent reminder take risks figure it out honestly sometimes I just I can't believe I actually like got this tattoo but I've wanted it for so long at the same time oh it's so small and cute I mean look at that come on this is actually my writing I wrote it in my little notebook and then my friend Angie tatted on me so shout out to Angie anyways thank you guys so much for watching and I will see you
in the next one [Music]
