Be Uncomfortable and Grow

Be uncomfortable? What!?! Yes, allow yourself to be uncomfortable. My challenge for today is to try something new that you may not be comfortable with. I don’t mean painful, I just mean different for you. Placing you outside of yourself is a great way to cultivate the sense of wonder that writers need.

Is there a new food you can try? Is there a new music genre you could explore? Could you go without your telephone for a day? Would you abandon the internet for a day in favor of planting a tree if you knew an idea would come from it?

I challenge you to do something outside of your normal routine. Use your senses and explore the strange and wonderful. Grow as a person and as a writer.
