Roller Coasters

What if I ride on all the roller coasters in an amusement park? 
when I have only the bravery to rode on 2 two years ago?

I had always been afraid by the rides that turn 360 degrees or that are really high up in the air. 2 years ago around the same month, I went to Six Flags amusement park and rode on only 2 "baby" (small size and not highly intense) rides. I was afraid of height and my best friend was not up to any ride at all. Discouraged and scared, that trip was a bit disappointing. I look back, and regret I can't say, "I did it! I rode on all of them!"

This year, I challenge myself to do new things. Against the fear of height and of getting a heart attack while on the ride (it had happened...and I have high cholesterol, not that high, but it is still higher than normal), I challenge myself to ride on as many roller coasters as I can get a seat on(you know sometimes how crazy and long the lines can get). I am determined to have a blast tomorrow and leave no regret when I leave it. 

I know this is not some Wowing factor goal, it will be a personal achievement if I succeed. If you heard back from me, then you will know I did not die from having a heart attack on 5/28/2013.

Fear of height, I have come to confront you~

Inspiring Words~

Excuses

If I had only done something different, if I had only taken the chance, if I had only...This sounds all too familiar? 

Excuses...
They plagued my mind and stopped me from following my dreams, especially when I was afraid of failing. I use them to defend myself when I failed to pursue what I want to do. Excuses caused me to look back and regretted why I didn't take the chance when I could. Excuses will prevent me from living a fulfilling life. 

Unless...
Our will is stronger than our fear. People who makes a difference in the world often said nothing is impossible if you believe and try. 
I often believe in the wildest dreams, but never try it out because afraid of what other people thinks and what will happen if I fail. And you know what, the sad part is, I will fail anyway if I don't try! I just don't need to suffer the immediate humiliation by peers, but will know the full pain of regret later in life. So what do I have to lose? Nothing!! I will fail and die either way in the end, and I have a higher chance of succeeding if I did try whatever I planned. 

Whenever an excuse forms in my mind and begins to infect the rest of my brain to ruin my future, I will remember I would fail anyway if I don't try and I would still need to face death either way. 

No more excuses, no more regrets.
Start believing, start thinking what we can do.

Think,
What if...

What if starting today, I will make a difference?
