3. You’ll Challenge Yourself
As an adult, how often do you try something new? A new hobby can introduce you to a new passion and can prevent you from falling into a rut. According to physician and Buddhist Alex Lickerman M.D., “growth seems to require we take new action first, whether it’s adopting a new attitude or a new way of thinking, or literally taking new action. Thrusting yourself into new situations and leaving yourself there alone, so to speak, often forces beneficial change.” Don’t be afraid of the unknown, instead be open to a new challenge and a new experience—it might change your life and open your eyes to a new source of fulfillment.
