Are You Too Comfortable?

It's easy fall into comfortable habits as an adult. We forget that these habits stem from new experiences that had great results. As children we experience a steady stream of new and uncomfortable things, some of which become our comfortable habits.
I feel it's important to experience new things to keep life interesting.
Today the Floater is spending some time on Dean Left at Kimberley Alpine Resort. The snow on the back side of the mountain is full of goodness.

And that is why time goes faster and faster as you get older. When you do something new (or go somewhere new) your brain has to catalogue the memory as a unique event. And that helps dilate your perception of time. If you do the same thing every day the time starts to melt into “one memory”.

Agreed. It's great to have a steady stream of timestamps in the memory banks.

So true! February 2023 I tried snowboarding for the 1st time. It was very uncomfortable and even broke my wrist in March. I bought my first ever new snowboard kit & pass and counted down the days until I could get to the hills. Yesterday I turned 50 🥹 I received 4 text messages from friends whom I didn’t even realize knew it was my birthday. (Nothing from friends or family) I decided to take myself to the ski 🏂 hill and for the FIRST TIME it clicked and I linked my turns. Spent the day going down the slopes like a real snowboarder 🏂 (not just on my heels) It was the best feeling and BEST way to spend my day. I came home to my 1 year old border collie, played with him and went to bed. Learning something new and being uncomfortable will ALWAYS be apart of my life until I take my last breath. (And then I’ll be experiencing something new again 😉)

I'm glad you're having a great experience. Good luck on your continued progression.
