Something You’ve Never Done Before

Garth Beyer

It felt nice being told I would be doing something I’ve never done before. Being told made it easier for me. Someone else made the choice. Someone else picked me.

There are two interesting epiphanies I had from being told.

First, I had to do things I’ve never done before to get asked to do things I’ve never done before. I’ve made a habit out of conquering the unknown and she knew I would be able to handle it. In reality, she didn’t pick me at random. I gave her a reason to.

Second, if we merely wait for someone to pick us, someone to force us into a new space, someone to tell us we’ll be doing something we’ve never done before, we’ll be waiting a very long time.

Opportunities to charter new territory and dare greatly are nearly always self-proposed.
