Embracing the Unknown

There is one question I have been asked repeatedly since I decided to attend Omaha Code School. Are you afraid/nervous about making such a big decision?

My answer is surprisingly simple. No. I am excited and ready to start this adventure. Understand, this is not like me at all. I have always needed to know what’s next. I never thought I would be okay with not knowing, but this course has given me the freedom to embrace the unknown for 12 weeks. I know I will learn. I know I will grow. I know I will meet new friends and colleagues. But what I am looking forward to the most is knowing that something will come up in the next several months I don’t even know about yet. And that is awesome!

    I’m typically risk-averse myself… But I am feeling the same way that you are. This is too good an opportunity to allow myself to operate in fear. This is a good life exposure in taking calculated risks. Plus, I think that we are going to be with awesome people, and probably bond a lot. I’ve been in immersive environments before, and I tend to thrive in them. 🙂
