It's good to challenge yourself with things you're not so good at ..... for example, I'm good at running a long time, but I'm not so good at sprinting/doing speed work. I hate it, as a matter of fact. But if I work on it, it will help me improve as a runner, become faster over longer periods of time, better pace ... and improve my fitness. (If I had my choice, though, I'd rather just lift weights, but then I wouldn't be aerobically fit at all, really, and what good is having big, strong muscles and not having any aerobic fitness? No balance....)
So...I've spent my life being a good intellectual-izer and being good at getting insight...about time I got better at actually dealing with and feeling and handling my emotions and putting some things into practical application in my mind/heart/life.
And I've spent my life being happy to be more solitary and introverted, thinking from within ...... so about time I learn more about reaching out, looking outward, doing more than what I used to think was necessary to have deeper, richer connections and relationships.
It's all about as fun as sprinting on a stupid track sometimes, and I'd rather just follow the usual groove in my brain....but some new grooves would be cool, too.
I want fewer holes in my portfolio, I guess.
