Wow! This is so cool. I didn’t even know about Sketchbook Skool. But more exciting is exactly what you said… you pushed yourself outside of your comfort zone — whether that was like me in leaving behind my to do AND going to a cultural event alone, or drawing when you hadn’t done it since you were a kid, like you. The 45 year old in me is proud of you!

I love that you said, "remember this story and step away from the computer, hold your own hand, and GO!" I've been having a lot of fun doing that lately... not leaving the house every time :) but doing something analog and outside of my comfort zone: I joined Sketchbook Skool. I haven't drawn much of anything since I was kid, when sadly I stopped right around the time I became aware I wasn't really good at it. Is it turning out I'm really good at drawing? Actually, that isn't really the point. I'm having fun, and seeing things differently. Will it inform my photography, how I think about composition? Maybe, maybe not. The point is I put myself in a position to be pushed and learn new things and that is deeply worthwhile. I think ten year old me would be proud.

Comment on Experience: The good, the bad, the ugly by William Curry

Experiences should help create the WHAT IF checklist in any task. The discipline of what if will reduce big failures and often be the architecture of better products, services and relationships.

Example- believe it or not. Prior to pilots having pre-landing checklist. They routinely forgot to put the landing gear down. Today- Pilots the do not read their pre-landing checklist routinely forget to put the landing gear down.

What if is an exercise that requires stepping out of the box and being objective.
