Akashic Librarian mentioned on the daily "must do's" thread "do something that scares you". Whenever I come across a fear or difficulty that seems worth dealing with, I get excited and go after it. As a result I'm running a little low on new fears to conquer and thought people might have some ideas to share. I've already done public speaking, sales, skydiving, talking to/asking out random people (as well as some I deeply knew and cared for) and such, now I'm seeing what else we can dig up. This interests me because people usually have so much energy tied up fears, whether they're conscious of them or not, that the release of moving past them can be incredible (personal development for adrenaline junkies ...). Also I imagine other people's thoughts may inspire more to take action in liberating themselves from/through their perceived limitations.
