A new monthly series, where I commit to doing three brave things. Are you ready for it?Nobody wants to do brave things, am I right? We don’t wake up in the morning, praying we experience hard things so we can practice being brave. (And if you do, I applaud you. I need some of your bravado.) Because doing brave things is hard. It takes us outside our comfort zone. It forces us to feel uncomfortable. It requires exposure of raw emotion. One thing that has helped me in the past few years, when circumstances have demanded me to be brave, has been this: you don’t have to FEEL brave in order to ACT brave. You just have to ACT.
That’s how I managed to sit with my Dad, day by day while his body wasted away to cancer. Heck no, I didn’t feel brave. I wanted to run. Ignore it. Retreat. But Dad needed encouragement. So. I acted brave. And the sweetness I received in those last few months were some of the most rewarding times with my Dad. Ever. What would have happened had I not shown up? I don’t intend this new series to be about those kinds of brave things (though, not ignoring them if they do!). But more about doing brave things in every day life. In my career, dreams, relationships, health, etc. Since DRIVEN is my 2020 word, I want to make sure I’m chasing after it. So? I’m here to start three brave things every month. They might look odd to you. They might seem simple. But that’s OK! Your brave things are your brave things and mine are mine. I’d LOVE it if you’d do this with me! Comment with 3 things (even one thing!) YOU want to be brave for in March! MARCH’S THREE BRAVE THINGS: This month, I’m focusing on health and writing.
At the end of the month, I’ll share how I did! Who’s with me?

Don’t be hesitant. I believe that you made the right choice to pushed through with your plan, so you need to stick with it. At the same time, I am pretty sure that your plans in life will work, and that is because you were brave enough to deal with situations though everything does not have an assurance. Getting out of your comfort zone might be hard, but you will thank yourself afterwards because once in your life, you made decisions that were completely because you became brave!

Many users take the test out of curiosity or self-reflection, aiming to understand whether their standards are attainable or overly ambitious. By providing numerical or descriptive results, the test encourages people to balance emotional desires with practical realities, promoting healthier relationships and more grounded dating expectations overall.

The process often begins with an inspection to assess the tree’s condition and risks. Once confirmed, specialists use advanced tools and safety gear to cut and remove trees efficiently. Responsible removal ensures the protection of nearby structures, landscapes, and people.

Learning about essential supplements to enhance your fasting helped me avoid fatigue and low energy. Electrolytes and vitamins were especially useful during extended fasts. I noticed better focus and hydration throughout the day. Proper support makes fasting more sustainable.

Understanding 18 months to years is helpful for schedules and milestones. It equals 1.5 years or 1 year and 6 months. Once you know the math, it becomes very straightforward. These conversions are useful in daily life.

Using an intermittent fasting calculator made my fasting schedule much easier to manage. It removed the guesswork and helped me stay consistent with my timing. I appreciated having a clear structure to follow every day. It’s especially helpful for beginners.

I recently explored who invented tally marks and found the history fascinating. Tally marks have been used for centuries as one of the earliest methods of counting. Ancient civilizations relied on them long before modern number systems existed. It’s impressive how effective such a simple system was.
