In Quest of Her

Describe a risk you took that you do not regret.

Close your eyes and instead of making a wish, take a, risk.

The other day I realized that I’ve lived my entire adolescent and adult life like this; making decisions JUST hoping that I’ve made the right ones. Some calculated thoughts goes into these decisions other times, the vibe just seems right.

(So millennial of me to say)

I’m thirty and I still have the slightest idea what I’m doing. I just do it. For example, at twenty-five after separating from a partner, I knew that I needed/wanted my own place since I had already had my first child. I wasn’t excited about renting so I wanted to see if I could purchase a home instead as it seemed to be a better option. I didn’t know the first thing about buying a home, I just knew I had a job, and my debt to income was fairly low. THATS IT!

I didn’t know anything else. I stumbled across an ad on facebook and set myself up with some people from there. One thing led to another and I had an entire team behind me. Less than three months later I purchased my very own home. I took a risk trusting people I found on a damn ad but in the end it worked out in my favor.

My toxic trait is having this sense of grandiose confidence that no matter how things turn out, I’ll always come out on top in some form or fashion, rather I get the turnout I initially wanted or I learned some sort of lesson. I rarely and I mean RARELY doubt the decisions I make.
