At American Mobility Specialists, we think the way you feel on the inside determines how you look on the outside.  When you feel adventurous you feel the motivation to explore and live a happy and fulfilling life.

I have never heard of anyone who doesn’t love a good adventure, whether it’s in their own life or fiction.

If we are not careful, it’s too easy to fall into the daily life of doing the most mundane things, when there are countless things out there to explore.

 

Here are 5 tips for adding some adventure to your life:

  1. Become curious.

    Sometimes that’s all that’s needed for becoming involved in new things.  Any honest person knows that they do not know everything, but learning something new is hard work.  We tend to take the easy route of sticking to the things we know.  Curiosity is the spark that motivates us to explore.

    Start opening new doors, start expanding on things that you already know about.

    There’s always something interesting to find. 


  2. Adventure is supposed to be scary.


    Everything worth doing is. Don’t get put down by this fact, but instead embrace it fully: it’s a great thing.

    Existence on this planet is all about motion.  Progression and growth are part of nature, but there are challenges. Face the challenge of doing something that’s not familiar to you and you will be rewarded.


  3. Remind yourself of what you love about yourself.


    There are a million ways to do this. You can hang up post-its with reminders. Write in your journal. Or just take a moment to think or say something nice about yourself when you look in a mirror!

    Try focusing on the qualities you love about yourself. Maybe it’s your leadership ability, your love for those around you, your amazing ability to multitask, your sense of humor, your endurance, or your strength. Every once in a while, take a few seconds to remember those things.


  4. Explore your interests.

    There are times in life when you get too busy to think about what interests you. If you want to be more adventurous, then you need to take the time to have some fun and explore.

    Talk to people who are doing the things that interest you. Ask them if they have any tips for getting involved. You might discover new interests that you didn't even know about.


  5.  Find others who share your interests.

    Humans are drawn to people who share a common interest and have fun together.  Enthusiasm for life is contagious.

    Locate groups online and screen them for compatibility. Facebook is a great place to find communities with similar interests.  If you like city tours you might look up a Facebook group that organizes city tours on the weekends.  This is a great way to meet people with similar interests.

    Attend an event and ask questions. For example, you attend a motorcycle show and ask one of the curators, “This show is fantastic. How does someone get involved in putting something like this on?” Most people will have a short conversation with you that might lead you to something exciting.
