Life is a process that we have never embarked on. I try to picture the day as an open book of possibilities where every day has something new to discover, to learn from. That is why Dora reveals her mind blowing tips for the joyful life full of discoveries and extraordinary challenges.
Embrace Curiosity
Questioning is the drive for questioning. It challenges you to move outside your comfort and discover more about the world.
Ask Questions
Do you recall how children always require an answer to their questions ‘Why?’ That is something because they are curious by nature. Well, we stop questioning as adults, but that’s one thing we need to restore, however, in our life. I have found that questioning or inquiring more often brings understanding and progression in this world, with people, and sometimes in oneself.
Explore New Topics
Did you ever wonder how stars are formed or why specific people have special celebrations on particular dates? Read an article, listen to a pod cast or watch a documentary of your choice. Knowledge grows and life remains interesting.
The whole point of teaching here is to leave the zone of comfort.
Real discovery occurs where you are willing to go a little bit beyond your comfort zone.
Try New Activities
It could be a dance class or cooking workshop , whatever you have been planning to attend could be attended. If you are shaky your first time, each new experience is a dent in your experience category. Actually, failure is not an option; it is an essential stage when implementing innovation.
Travel to New Places
Vacations don’t always involve a flight. Walking to a neighboring town or eating in a new restaurant is also sufficient.
Practice Mindfulness
Mindfulness helps to pay attention to things that one cannot usually see in a day to day basis.
Stay Present
There is nothing wrong with being fast in everything we do, but learn how to take time and enjoy the beauty of the moment. Listen to the birds chirping, find the hues in the sky like oranges, pinks and reds, feel the texture of your clothes that you are wearing, smell the flowers around you, taste your favourite dish.
Reflect on Experiences
Keep a journal. Considering daily experience’s description aids in reinforcing the lesson embraced, as well as retaining memories.
Relationships should be meaningful.
You only grow to the extent allowed by the people around you or as limited by these people.
Connect with Diverse People
Get to know people with different experiences. Their lessons of life can make you have a wider perspective of life than you have ever had before.
Share Your Discoveries
Have you read something interesting? Share it! Regardless of if this is on a blog, in discussion, or on any social media, encourage those around you with your story.
Cultivate a Growth Mindset
The second aspect about growth mindset is that it sees challenges as one needing a change.
Embrace Challenges
What wrong with difficulties? Instead of running away from it, welcome it. All tests are good to learn for; they always render one strong and able to take any test easily.
Celebrate Progress
Each one of them must be congratulated for the accomplishments they were able to achieve. Climate change: Small progress is still progress and deserves a cheer.
Stay Active and Engaged
Fitness and productivity is the key to living a full, exciting life. It sustains muscular energy and mental ingenuity as it directs you to wander around the world with passion and passion.
Exercise for the Mind
While we can define physical activity as exercise we should consider it as being so much more than that. Activity revitalises the body and in turn the mind as well. Simple movements such as walking to and from the office, Yoga or even shaking a leg to music helps increase the creativity as well as problem solving levels. When have you ever realize some of the most brilliant plans to happen in a walk? Not a coincidence here, as any kind of movement is always beneficial for the brain and gets all those ‘creative juices’ flowing.
Explore Nature’s Wonders
This is one of the fun ways that will help you increase your activity levels while exploring what nature has to offer. Nature walks which involve moving through forests or along beaches or a park are a great way to notice the small things that make life amazing. It is true that when one is out in nature they are inclined to regain curiosity almost as if there is renewal.
Engage in Lifelong Learning
Learning doesn’t end in school – in fact it never ends. Register for a class or try a new language you always wanted to learn or some kind of craft like painting, gardening or cooking. Such activities are skillful and help you maintain a good attitude towards life. The joy that comes from learning something and being masters of new skills is something I never get bored of.
Join Clubs and Communities
Club activities where individuals engage in some form of activity that is of interest to them is fun. Rarely does one find themselves inspired by a book club, hiking group or a volunteer organization and this shows how good company can lead to more discoveries.
Challenge Yourself Regularly
Choose and establish individual objectives that should be challenging. Whether it is running for marathon, writing a book, learning how to play an instrument, setting a goal which probably has never been done before makes life interesting. The process, which results in the achievement of these objectives, involves learning things one does not intend discover about herself and the world.
Balance Activity with Rest
Exercise is good for you BUT..sleep is essential for you too. Just remember to get your body and mind back in shape. Those moments of relaxed activity, such as sitting and meditating or reading a book, help you to be ready for the next fresh activity.
Give Back to the Community
Another beautiful way of practicing exploratory living is by volunteering. RETURN ON INVESTMENT; When you invest your time, talent, and information, you forge linkages, learn new ways of life, and gain purpose in life.
Volunteer Opportunities
Whether that’s volunteering at a food bank, feeding an animals at the shelter, or picking candy off the ground in public places-your actions will matter. Volunteering is not only a way to help others: It regards you, of course, too because its purpose is to broaden one’s vision and to have insight of others people’s lives.
Share Knowledge and Skills
It is very fulfilling to teach or to mentor another person. This could be teaching a sports team in your area, or providing academic support to students, or conducting training sessions in a skill that one has mastered among many others. And, most important, you educate others to do the same thing and it indeed gives a sense of usefulness.
Small Acts of Kindness Matter
It kinda supports the idea that one doesn’t have to make a great many sacrifices to give back. Fortunately, in our everyday life, perhaps all we need is to assist our neighbor; give away clothes that we no longer need or buy from a local store, and we may be igniting a ripple effect. Summatively, every tiny move that is made does make a big difference.
Join Community Projects
Support public initiatives as for example construction of a garden, planning events, or charity activities. The above activities also create value for the society and at the same time help you interact with like-minded people.
Learn Through Service
This is the other side of the bargain; giving is also receiving. It often holds a lot of lessons as you help others. Going volunttering helps you gain new skills, learn to appreciate what you have and feels the joy of making others happy.
Conclusion
What I have learned from this form of storytelling imagery is that the life of discovery is characterised by curiosity, unfamiliarity, and interaction. It is not about getting to the desired place like in Java, where once there is a way to ‘get there’, apparently enjoying the trip is a bonus.
