Ask Choices: Your Burning Questions, Answered
How Can I Try Something New?
Dear Choices,
I’ve been doing the same sports and extracurriculars for years. I watch the same shows and listen to the same music every day. I’m bored! How can I break out of my comfort zone?
Signed, Ready for Something New in Rhode Island
Dear Ready,
It’s easy to get into a rut when it comes to activities. It might feel scary to do something you’ve never done before, but it’s totally worth it. Try these steps to expand your horizons.
Love, Choices
1. Join Something
Join a club or take a class to learn a sport or an instrument you’ve never played.
2. Ask Someone
Ask a sibling, parent, teacher, or coach for music, movie, and TV recommendations.
3. Watch Something
