“”Since I started my big round the world trip a few weeks back, I’ve heard the same exclamation from several people: “Wow, you’re really doing it!”
My initial, unspoken reaction is usually along the lines of, “Well, yeah. I said I was going to. What did you expect?”
What I’ve come to realize though is that not many people actually do follow through and walk their big dream talk. The fact that I’m doing just that doesn’t make me feel especially proud or exceptional. Rather, it makes me feel sad. Because what’s our word worth if most of us don’t even follow through on our biggest dreams? Making them real should be of the utmost importance to us, but it seems we let them slip away much too easily.
Checking In On Your Big, Ridiculous Goals: Are You Walking Your Talk?
It’s incredibly sad how many times I’ve had this same reaction, whether it was after my Trans-Siberian trip, or when I went to Iceland on my birthday, or even now when I went to Morocco for three days for the hell of it. Or even the fact that I’ve been freelance for almost a year now and haven’t starved to death (or haven’t even had to move out of my apartment).
It’s not that hard, people. Seriously.
