Although the famous quote “Life begins outside our comfort zone,” may not be entirely true, we could make a case for the fact that “Fun begins outside our comfort zone.”
You can live your life the same old way, doing the same old stuff day after day, month after month, year after year but when you live on beautiful Vancouver Island with all the exciting opportunities it has to offer, why would you?
We aren’t suggesting you take up skydiving (unless you want to!) but there are some less risky ways you can think outside the box and shake things up in your day-to-day life.
Why not do something as simple as learning how to make the perfect cocktail at home? How about changing your diet to allow you to enjoy this life for many more years to come? Maybe it is time to consider following your passion by taking on a volunteer position. Or taking that historical tour of Vancouver Island you have been wanting to do for years.
Local filmmaker Patricia Sims lives by the motto “It is better to lose yourself in your passion than to lose your passion.” She has built a career and a life that takes her all over the world by following what makes her happy. Now, it’s your turn!
From sitting down with a financial advisor to plan your retirement to getting on a mountain bike, there are many ways to step outside of your comfort zone. And why wouldn’t you? After all, that’s where the fun is!
