This isn't a new year's resolution, because I came up with the idea in early December 2022. But it is a year long thing that I'm going to try and do.
2022 was a...well it was a rough year for lots of different reasons, blog writing stopped, creativity in general was in fits and bursts which I had to really work at to get anywhere.
Some waves on a particularly windy day.
2023 is a year of new adventures. Each week I'm going to try and do something new, have a new experience, create new memories. See something new, experience something new, do something. Have an adventure.
There'll be no punishments, if I can't fit it into my week, or if something comes up there's not going to be any 'you have to make it up the following week' sort of thing. This isn't a challenge not in the whatever sense where there's a negative to it. This is about positive things, trying to go out and have an adventure.
Although it may be less exciting adventure and more 'Five go on an adventure'-style some of the time.
I've made a spreadsheet, so each time I think of somewhere to go, or something to see, or if I'm looking at Google Maps and see something or somewhere I'll add it. I might not get to wherever or do whatever this year, but it's a list to choose things from, so I don't need to think about it as much each week.
Also, failure, that’s okay too. It's okay to fail at an adventure, or an attempt, it's still a learning experience.
My first adventure, as will be shown in the upcoming blog was a failure, but only by about half. And that's still okay, I still learnt a lot.
