I have always been called shy and introverted. Quiet. But people close to me also see my crazy, funny and silly side. I figure if I can be outgoing with people I know the only thing stopping me from doing that with people I don't know is: Me. I start small. I make eye contact and give a smile or say good morning to a stranger as we pass each other on the street. I have given myself a target of 2-3 people to do this with every week. That also forces me to leave my house 😆

I want a life that challenges me with discomfort and new possibilities for growth, but at the same time, I'm too afraid of uncertainties. Whenever things go out of my plans or out of control. I almost lost my direction and mind. I'm trying to manage it but it's difficult, my fear always steps in and forces me to play the "safe game" although inside of me, someone wants to be challenged and wants growth, but I think the same human inside me is afraid of discomfort and stops me... It's like a tug of war inside...
