What A Risk Means to Me

Often, I set a Personal Growth weekly goal to take one risk a day: doesn't matter how big or small, just take the lil' risk. And I had it again as my goal this week, so I wanted to share what that looks like in my daily life.

Monday: I complimented an older gal on her flexibility at the gym. I normally wouldn't have said anything, worried I'd be too in her space, but in my head I thought 'no anne marie, just tell her she's got amazing flexibilty'. So I did, and she didn't look at me like I'm a weirdo, but was VERY thankful of the compliment.

Tuesday: I can't remember right now...but i'm pretty sure I did a lil' one

Wednesday: I started the application process to write for the Examiner in San Fran. Who knows if it'll happen, but I love writing about mom/fitness, and health, and figured what the heck, the worst that can happen is they say no...

Thursday: I went to my kid's school social coffee hour. Doesn't sound like a risk, but I had no idea who was going to show up, and I had a lot to do (workouts, get ready for work), so didn't want to waste time. I know, sounds sorta bad. But I finally figured, y'know what? If I was hosting the coffee, I'd want people to come. So I mustered up the energy and went, and I'm glad I did. AND I did get my other stuff done and still had energy for wor

Sat: No risk taking today. It was all about regrouping from the week, tag teaming workouts with the DH and hanging with the kids.

and for Sunday...we'll see. It hasn't happened yet, but I think something will happen

That's my life at the moment when I write 'Take a Risk'. Now, I'd LOVE to know what risks you took this week. Tell me!;-)
