Taking More Risks in 2011

I don't do the New Years Resolution thing anymore. What do I do? I follow a motto for the year. Yup, that's right, a motto. Last year's motto was: Do More Stuff. Pretty generalized motto, but it worked...I had an epic and busy 2010!

This year's motto is: Take More Risks.

What I've decided to do is create a list; a "2011 Take More Risks Bucket List" to be exact. This list will be on going, growing in "risks" as I think of them (or as they are recommended to me). No risk will be removed from the list, but not all risks may be completed -- they are simply a guideline or supply from which to dip.

The list thus far is:
- Perform karaoke.
- Take part in a live theatre production...ON STAGE.
- Travel, away from the city/province/country, at least once, maybe twice.
- Join a club.
- Take a class.
- Say "yes" more often than "no".
- Do at least 2 "30 Day" challenges.
- Get a tattoo.

Other than the tattoo these all might seem like "safe" risks, but I think I can shake things up. It's still early in the year. Plus, the list is ever growing...
