Plan and execute one adventure this week — something you've never done before.
Novel experiences — things you've never done, environments you haven't been to, challenges you haven't faced — produce disproportionately strong memories and learning. Research on the 'reminiscence bump' (the tendency to remember experiences from periods of high novelty more vividly) suggests that doing new things is one of the ways you create a richer, more memorable life. Novelty is also one of the strongest triggers for neuroplasticity — the brain's ability to form new connections.
This week, plan and execute one adventure you've never done before. It should involve the outdoors, involve some degree of physical challenge, and take at least a half day. It could be a trail you've never hiked, a surf lesson, a rock climbing session, a day trip to a place you've always meant to visit, a camping night, or anything else that qualifies as genuinely new and somewhat outside your comfort zone.
