“Just because you’re grown up and then some doesn’t mean settling into the doldrums of predictability.
Surprise people. Surprise yourself.” ~ Victoria Moran
Jell-O was cool when we were kids – from the plain finger Jell-O to more exciting concoctions with fruit and marshmallows – we could always count on its predictable qualities. It was cold, jiggly, and melted in our mouths.
Consistency and predictability are healthy when we are growing up. Structure provides security and allows us to explore our developing selves while our outside environment remains secure. Now that we know who we are, predictability actually stunts our self-exploration.
What feels a bit too comfortable to you? A relationship? A job? A workout? A commute? Switch it up this week! Do something unpredictable! Avoid pouring your life into the same mold each and every day! You were meant to live your life and LIVING requires breaking the mold once in awhile!
Make it a strong day!
