If I Were Fearless…

by freeandflawed on July 31, 2009

If I were fearless I would…

Go to medical school.

Walk with confidence and not feel paranoid while checking behind me.

Be completely honest with my dad.

Say no.

Sky dive.

Race through the water on a jet ski.

Walk into a room full of strangers and smile. And mean it.

Go rock climbing.

Be honest about my feelings for a friend.

I’d sing in public. Sober.

Talk about the abusive relationship I was in.

Snowboard.

Fall in love.

Eat all sorts of exotic foods that I see on the Food Network.

Move across the country.

Move to another country.

Tell him that it was him, not me.

Never, ever settle.

Go sailing on a boat that Jaws could easily devour in one bite.

That’s just a start. What would you do?

Don’t wait until you are fearless, by then it will be too late! Take a deep breath and jump!

Move to the city

Go back to school and major in something I actually want to do

Dye my hair red (okay, I know it will look horrible, but I have always wanted to do it)

If I was fearless I’d actually let myself be loved.

Come skydive with me!! Even if you’re not fearless. I’m certainly not.

I think my injuries co-inciding with my 25th b-day have made me temporarily fearless. It’s a very odd and freeing feeling.

I think once this cast comes off I would like to try some freestyle motorcross, and some alleycat racing once I get my strength back

I would move out of the country in a heartbeat. I would major in something I’m actually interested in. I would scuba dive with sharks.

Happy Friday!

I am more or less fearless…but there’s one thing I am scared to do and that’s launch my own business. I have a great idea, great plan – but I’m terrified it’ll blow up in my face and be too successful.

The other thing I’m a little afraid to do I guess is to quit my job and just move to another city.

Damn wanting to have insurance and a job.

You know what I say? I say a bunch of those are totally achievable goals. Instead of tackling them all at once, why not do them one at a time. Cross them off the list. And move on!!

I would do what is best for me, regardless of it’s effect on other people.

I would look for love instead of comfort and distraction.

I would tell people exactly what I think, rather than what they can handle.

Sometimes I wish I’d gone to medical school, too. I hate blood, but I love the idea of having this specific set of skills designed to save lives. It’s like being a superhero.

Nice list, I’d go to Medical School too if the fear of blood didn’t make me faint, lol. Proud to say I’ve moved across the country because I had fallen in love, went sky diving (not that scary), lived in London for 6 months and often sing in public although I’m a terrible singer and I’m not being modest, I suck.
Come visit across the country to LA and we’ll do karoke in koreantown, it’s best at around 1 a.m.

oh and I once went where they filmed Jaws (martha’s vineyard) and the dock area and beach looked just like in the film and I couldn’t go in the water, lol.

I guess I would:

- Walk into a place and ask for a job application.
- Tell my mother what I really think about her.
- Cut my hair.

I would tell my former bosses that I was in the mental hospital being diagnosed as bipolar

I would tell them that firing me the day I returned from my honeymoon put me in a 4-month depression

I would tell people what happened to me when I was younger

I would do things more extreme than I should

I would pack up and move back to Brisbane

Never ever settle, go after what you really want because anything less is compromise.

If I were fearless, I would:
Go to medical school
Move to the new city I’m contemplating without worry
Get in the car and just drive. Drive until I’ve visited the thirteen states left on the list of “visit every state in america” and check it off my life list.
