6. Living In A Lab Coat: Mix Up Success Through The Experiment of Life

Have Good Ripple Effect

Hey there! Today, we're diving into the concept of "Living in the Lab." Picture me, if you will, decked out in lab goggles and a coat, ready to mix a potion of life experiments. This past year, I've given myself full permission to treat life as a series of experiments. Some fizzled, some exploded, but each one taught me something invaluable.

Giving yourself permission to experiment—and yes, to fail—is liberating. It’s about stepping into the lab, trying new things, and accepting that not everything will go according to plan. And that’s perfectly okay. In fact, it’s necessary for growth. This mindset shift is about seeing life not as a series of destinations but as a path of discovery, where the journey itself is the reward.

Remember the thrill of doing something for the first time? That heart-racing, slightly nerve-wracking sensation is what keeps us alive, curious, and ever-growing. Whether it's writing a book, trying a new fitness class, or launching a podcast, the "first-time feeling" is a reminder that we're pushing boundaries and exploring uncharted territories.

Now, what if you could harness that energy for your dreams? Start by making a list of what you might need to realize those dreams. It doesn't have to be perfect. This list is your starting point, your map to experimentation. It's about identifying the tools, knowledge, and support you need to take the first step and then the next.

Living in the lab means embracing life as an experiment, where every failure is a lesson, and every success is a stepping stone. It's about adopting a mindset of curiosity and resilience, where the goal isn't to avoid failure but to learn and grow from it. So, what experiment will you start today?
