I really like the resolution to embrace the uncomfortable. When you're young and inexperienced you have very little to lose by taking uncomfortable risks, but as you advance in your career it becomes more difficult to take the same risks.

I recently read the 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss and he has some great exercises called Comfort Challenges that really push you to go outside of your comfort zone. Some examples include

  * Maintain eye contact for a long time
  * Approach attractive males/females and get their numbers
  * Lie down in the middle of a public place

These seem like simple activities, but they quickly get you acclimated to uncomfortable situations. I highly recommend Ferriss' book if you're interested embracing the uncomfortable.

Should I get my wife's permission first?

Depends on how much you want to embrace the uncomfortable.
