Be Courageous

When you've lost your entire identity, you've lost every solid structure in your life, and you're figuring out what's next. There was no fear of taking risks because I thought I was not good at drawing people. I decided to go to a coffee shop in Bainbridge Island outside of Seattle and draw people at a coffee shop in public. It's important to push ourselves beyond our comfort zone. I took something challenging and decided to do it in front of people just for fun and just to feel that push for myself. The biggest fear that I had when living my purpose was being alone. But that wasn't true. I have found the love of my life. By not settling in the past for something or someone that I thought was going to be the end for me, I took a risk of being alone to find love. I took a risk of turning down a safety net of a job to become an entrepreneur. I've turned down all of these safety nets, options that were easy but didn't feel right in my soul. I knew there was more, so I pushed myself to the unknown, to the beyond.
