151005 - CrossFit - Carpe Diem
Carpe Diem- an admonition to seize (or more literally pluck) the day, the phrase is attributed to Horace and was popularized by the movie Dead Poets Society, and terrible freehand script tattoos on a generation of college students and hipsters.
I came to the realization that I have not been doing that for some time now.
I've never been afraid to die, but I've become afraid to live.
I stay in. I've stopped doing things remotely challenging and dangerous.
I don't go on adventures. When I take road trips, they're well within a day's return distance.
I no longer take risks. I don't know when the change happened. Has it been recent, or has it been years?
How do I change this? What happened to burn out rather than fade away?
What have you stopped doing because of unfounded fears?
What can you do to seize the day today?
