Have you ever been to a job fair?
A few weeks ago
I went to a speed dating event.
I admit it on camara. Yes, I tried speed dating.
And for those that don't know what is speed dating,
we can compare it to a job fair.
Except, it is a fair of people.
And it was so interesting to me.
I love to travel, in case you didn't know. I love it.
As you can see behind me. Yes..
This is my living room.
And in the speed dating, my first question to everyone was:
Tell me to what places have you traveled?
The majority of the men, with
who I talked to that day, told me:
They had NOT traveled
out of the country! Some even
admitted they had not been traveled out of the state.
That surprised me!
So naturally my next question was:
Where would you like to travel?
Something simple. Right?
And almost always people have an idea of where they would like to travel.
Some said Paris. Someone said Australia.
Anyways! the point was not the place!
But after that, my natural reaction was
to say GO! I mean
if you want to go, you're an adult, GO! What is stopping you?
Almost always,
the vast majority answered:
"Well, I am waiting for a special person.."
[Sarcasm] Magnificent! Excellent!
I mean HELLO! Here you are!
Single! And wondering why? Umm nooo..
In my experience,
I say traveling alone is not as bad as people think.
Sometimes it's even better!
People feel great empathy
for people who travel alone.
There hasn't been a place where I've visited alone that I say
"Aww, poor me.." NO!
On the contrary!!
So then, don't be one of those people that
just waiting and wishing. NO! on the contrary!
Be one of those people that GOES! and explores!
You know what!?
Boldness is required!
Boldness that makes you brave!
The No. 1 phrase people always say
when they see me alone anywhere is
"Wow! You're so brave!"
Some dare say how bold I am.
And that's the tip for today!
If finding a spouse is like looking for job, then
Boldness is required!
You can't be one of those people waiting and wishing.
You must be someone who takes action! Someone who makes things happen!
And that requires letting go of fear to talk to people.
That's one of the reasons to try speed dating.
I am even going as far as
recommending it to some of my friends.
I mean, lol. I am a speed dating spokesperson
among my friends.
I consider some people need to
develop some boldness.
Why? Bravery is progressive.
It can start small and little by little it can grow
until you can be someone described as brave.
Every time you
do something that takes you a little
and stretches you out of your comfort zone,
naturally bravery will start to feed itself inside of you.
Don't think so hard! Just DO SOMETHING!
Go! Talk to that person! or
Get out of your comfort zone
and try speed dating.You might surprise yourself.
So don't stop yourself!
Don't just wait around wishing, ACT! Be brave!
