RE: Life Is About Taking Risks (Careers, Moving, Crypto, etc). Here's A Story of Risk/Dream I Had.

Fantastic that you followed your dream. Even though it ultimately ended in you eliminating NYC from your list of dream places to live, you can still regard it as a check on your bucket list!

If you hadn't gone, you would always have wondered what it would have been like to move to NYC and you might have regretted never pursuing that goal. It's brilliant that you did it and realised that it wasn't what you thought it would be. Similar things have happened to me a couple of times and I always see them as positive steps in the end.

Sometimes, finding something that you DON'T want can be amazingly useful in realising what you DO want. Well done for being flexible enough to realize that your dreams and goals had changed!

Exactly!! Life is too short to not step out of our comfort zones every once and a while and try to eliminate our "what ifs". I also am a firm believer in everything happening for a reason, so even when things don't workout, I try to see the positive aspects of it just like you!

Thanks for the thoughtful comments always. I get excited when I see you write something!! It's great getting to know other girls in the Steemit community :)

Totally! Everything happens for a reason, even if you can't see what it is right then. At some point in the future you'll look back and realise that the thing that you found disappointing or seemed like a failure at the time was actually the first step towards something even bigger and better.

Haha I feel the same way! Nice to have a circle of Steemit friends <3
