Rick Tumlinson Quotes

If you don't take risks in your life, you never feel something new, so I taste something new, and I like that.

I always say, you know, if I sit here and close my eyes and say, 'When did I learn the most in my life, in my career?' It'll always be when I close them and everything I think of is when I took a risk. It's when I think I learned the most.

It's good for me to do things outside my comfort zone and push myself.

When someone asks me to do something, something new, something I don't know about, and if I haven't done it, I'll say yes. Just so I can try something new. You never know what you might like.

No, you never get any fun out of the things you haven't done.

Sometimes doors open and other close and you have to figure out which one you're going to take. I'm always for the one that's challenging. That's where I think you live your life to the fullest.

Face your fears and doubts, and new worlds will open to you.

Just try new things. Don't be afraid. Step out of your comfort zones and soar, all right?

Without risk you can't experience life. There have to be risks, physically and mentally, taken by everyone.

I like feeling out of my depth.

Adventure is something out of the usual pattern, a point at which you cannot avoid confronting the unknown, so that you have to dig inside yourself to find the courage and resources to deal with what may lie ahead, and to succeed.

Instead of trying to make your life perfect, give yourself the freedom to make it an adventure, and go ever upward.

Every day I do something that freaks me out.

We have a normal. As you move outside of your comfort zone, what was once the unknown and frightening becomes your new normal.

The spirit around leaving New York, for me, was that I just felt I needed to do something really outside of my comfort zone. And I really couldn't tell you at the time why I needed to do it. It wasn't like I was running from something dark; it was a desire to shake things up.

What draws me in is that a trip is a leap in the dark. It's like a metaphor for life. You set off from home, and in the classic travel book, you go to an unknown place. You discover a different world, and you discover yourself.
