Is doing something that scares you , always a good thing?
#1
I'm feeling really nervous as I prepare to drive to Germany early tomorrow. I have driven in europe before but its the first time since I split with my ex. I know that I have to just rely on myself but its hard and a little bit scary. I'm hoping that once I return I will feel more confident. Wish me luck .

Good luck! You'll do great!
Fear is a natural, important biological response. It makes us sharper and more attentive. It can help us get through new or difficult circumstances successfully.
So it's good to be a bit nervous - it means you're going on a new adventure! :)

Harness your anxiety by putting it to use: pack extra bottles of water for the trip, take a little extra cash, more than you had planned; pack an emergency bag with items you might need like candy bars, a blanket, flashlight, extra batteries, cookies, bandaids, a hat, a couple paperback books to read, etc. Make a list and check it twice. Leave your address and phone number with two friends, make a plan to call them when you arrive in Germany, or a designated time. Then, have a cup of camomile tea and get some sleep.

Me too. A lot of firsts for me since losing DH last summer....but every time I do something by myself that I never had to do before, it builds up that much more confidence.
Go for it, have a great time, this is your chance to be free!
A little bit of nervousness is a good thing, but you'll be so proud of yourself afterwards!
