Ambition vs Celebration – The Epic Battle

Finally, video 29 of Mel’s 30 day Scare The Crap Out Of Myself Video Challenge has arrived….and it’s time to celebrate!

How many of you would consider yourselves to be super ambitious? You dream big and sometimes struggle to think small. You are always looking ahead and rarely look backwards. Well, this is me…and it’s a part of myself that I am most proud of but that I also get the most frustrated with. Because I am looking forward I forget to look back and celebrate what I have achieved. This generally results in negative self talk, convincing myself that I haven’t achieved much. Well, this is video 29 and I am almost to my 30! So, I’ve decided to look back for once, and celebrate this incredible journey. Join me in celebrating?

*warning, I may dance at the end of this video…

For 30 days I have posted a video which describes doing something that both scares and excites me, one learning point, and a take away. Join me through my ‘Hell yeah!’ moments and my ‘Oh Sh*t’ moments for the next 30 days and please do cheer me on! The next video will be my last in this challenge and will focus on what I learned during the process and how you can start your own 30 day challenge. See the rest of the 30 days here 

Why on earth would you do this, Mel?

For Me: To bring some structure back in my life. To prove to myself that I can follow through. To document my journey at this scary time. To feel alive.

For You: Perhaps you are on a similar journey, thinking of making a change or needing to give yourself a kick in the bum to get going. I hope that following my journey will help you feel that you are not alone and inspire you to go out and do things that scare you too. Because in the end, it is by finding and doing something that makes you come alive that we truly start to make a dent in the world. Want to scare the crap out of yourself on film? Start your own challenge and let us know that you do! Share it on twitter with #stcoom (short for scarethecrapoutofmyself!)
