Alright, Alright

My name is Michael Colin Glasner and I am really good at living life. I'm not rich, I do not own a car, and I need a haircut but otherwise I am doing quite well. This year, and this blog, are dedicated to my year of no fear and to my love, travel. Blogging terrifies me. I don't really like the thought of jaded internet people tearing apart what I write or think but at the same time they do not matter. What really terrifies me is my friends and peers tearing apart what I write or think but in the end, it's all good.

I was in Perth, Western Australia when I had this idea. Last year I overcame my fear of being a leader. It sounds silly but I was always happier being the second fiddle . Now, I like being a leader and it turns out I'm not bad at it either. But this year there are a few things I have to knock out. I love photography and have been told I am good at it. But again the whole people judging me thing is off putting. Well, it does not matter because by the end of this year I will put on a photography show. I left my really amazing job because I knew there was nothing in it for me anymore. I could have gone on autopilot and made money but instead I said goodbye and am entering a whole new realm. I will now go to Australia for the year to do jobs I have never considered before. I will finish my novel. I will finish my screenplay. I will complete my short films, and yes that is plural. This is absolutely daunting and terrifying but it must be done. I aim to inspire and there is nothing better than just going for it, win or lose. I'm also terrified of scuba diving so I will do that too. 


Regardless of what happens this year, it will be a good one. Life is an adventure and one worth taking. Do the same and you'll be amazed at what happens next. Make this your year of no fear.
