Risk and Reward

Life is a whirlwind.

In the past few months, heck, likely even in the past year or more I have been taken on so many ups and downs.

The last few posts I was going through a lot. A lot of confusion, crossroads, decisions to make, sorting out my noggin, etc.

If you really know me, you'd know I don't exactly like to make decisions. Not because I'm indecisive... but more... I'm just really that go-with-the-flow. When it comes to important decisions in my life I can analyze scenarios a, b, & c to no end and still wonder if I'm making the right decision. I'm sure that's shared with most of us.

I've made some big decisions in the last few months. It was scary. The unknown was terrifying. Closing one chapter and starting a new one was incredibly...difficult.

It wasn't easy and surely wasn't a smooth process. There was a fair amount of background noise while I went through this but finally, yes finally we are at the smooth sailing stage.
And it feels good.
It feels right.

So my unsolicited advice to you... well if I'm being honest here, it's more of a strong reminder to myself:

Take that leap of faith.

A smooth landing is never guaranteed but hey; at least you know you didn't let life just pass you by and be stuck with those "what if" feelings.
