Growth begins where your comfort zone ends. And personal growth feels pretty darn awesome. . Central to GIVE’s mission is the concept of personal growth. Through pushing people far beyond their comfort zones on off-the-beaten-path, culturally immersive adventures, we are able to foster genuine personal growth in our volunteers. . Never traveled abroad before? Never experienced life in a remote community? Never climbed a mountain before? DO IT. And experience it alongside a rad group of people willing to travel with purpose. . Also peep at that beautiful school we built alongside the Langtang community this summer! 🙌 Click the link in bio to say yes to stretching your comfort zone. . #givevolunteers #givenepal #travelwithpurpose #volunteerabroad #stretchyourcomfortzone #bethechange #learnthroughtravel #traveldifferently (at Langtang, Nepal) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3QARqgHVZg/?igshid=1arol2w6fpwl2

Challenge me, please.

Something I struggle with occasionally is, I express a challenge I’m experiencing in a way that I want someone to have an understanding of what I’m currently working through. The typical reply I get is “that’s college”. 1. That is the least helpful reply. 2. This implies the college experiences don’t equate to real life. 3. I’ve had much more challenging situations to work through in career and life-it just happens that the college experience it the most relevant to me right now. 

What I’m trying to accomplish is engaging in more intellectual conversations. What many people don’t understand is that I’m really excited to have the opportunity to tackle these challenges that I face in college. Maybe I should learn to phrase how I express myself differently so I have more of a chance to have intellectual discussions regarding the challenge. Or maybe I need to have these conversations with people who didn’t go to college just to tick something off of their list. Or maybe I need to have a clever reply to those who choose to give the ‘been there, done that’ attitude. 

College to me is an incredible privilege that I feel very fortunate to experience at this age, with a clear goal, and relevant career experience. I’m trying my best to get the most out of college and take better ownership of where I’m at. Some of these noises are discouraging and I need to be better at filtering out the comments that don’t serve me.
