This month I am posting about risk, and words that contribute to the risks I take in my life!
Sometimes I make goals for my life that I know are a huge risk. Do you have goals that you have yet to accomplish. Last year before I turned 35, I made 40 goals of things to do before I turned 40. So, I thought.... hey why not include those in this post?

#18 Be open to new dating opportunities

So... some of these require pretty big risk! Some don't... but regardless making goals and accomplishing them is a big part of who I am.
I actually love it. Do you have any goals that you have set? Are they risky goals?

Those are great! Some more easily achieved than others. But I like that you made this list.
I usually set writing goals for myself, with the intent of releasing a new book every year. So far I'm on track!
Several of these are on my list as well. My main goals right now are build my business(es) and save money so I can set myself up for my 10 year RTW bike tour. A somewhat more distant, but also on the "definitely want to" list is learn to paraglide, because after my bike trip I want to vol bivouac the mountainous regions and hitchhike the flatter areas of the US and Canada.
Love both quotes, especially the second.
I set myself goals each year and I've got a varied bunch at the moment. The biggest one is starting a family. Phase one of that was completed in February when we had a successful cycle of IVF with nine embryos in the freezer, we're just getting ready to start phase two and thaw someone out!
Good luck with your goals.
