I always like to set time aside in the year to do something different, something crazy that people don’t normally think of doing. I like being adventurous and taking my limits to the next level and just when I think I cant go anymore I keep on pushing. One example I can relate to is snowboarding. I love snowboarding not only because the sound of the wind blowing as a rush down the mountain electrifies me, but also because I can always keep pushing myself and take it to the next level. Mother nature has no limit, and as the slope gets more difficult, it encourages me to continue to push my hardest to reach my goal. When I snowboard I always have the option to approach the situation the way I feel will make me happy. Sometimes I just want to slowly cruse down the mountain just enjoying the scenery and the fresh air, but other times I want to push myself and I want to reach the point where I’m making mistakes because you can never be perfect if you never learn from your mistakes. When I am on the mountain there is one saying that describes me well: I’m “in it for the thrill.” No matter to what extreme in which I’m coasting down the mountain, there is always one goal in mind and that is to have a thrilling experience. It’s the kind of experience you don’t get from everyday actions but the one you get from going out of the everyday path for a change and trying something different. I think the mountain is place where I learn to become a more successful person in life because I learn to always try my hardest and never give up in achieving my goals.
