As you set out to explore your dreams, you may be feeling pressure—both from yourself and from those around you—to “act your age” and be responsible. However, being an Explorer is very different from being irresponsible. On the contrary, it is about taking responsibility for making sure that your life is going to be as full and rewarding, both personally and professionally, as it can possibly be.

It can be challenging at times to walk to the beat of a different drummer, but the point is that if you change the rhythm of your life to conform to someone else’s beat—if you do what’s expected of you rather than what you expect of yourself—the results may please others but leave you unfulfilled.

Here are the top 10 mental muscles you must develop:

1) Learn to Trust your Natural Talents - First and foremost, you need to know what you are good at, what are your natural abilities.

2) Learn to Trust your Intuition Trusting your intuition takes a leap of faith, just as exploration takes courage—especially if you try to do something that is considered out of the ordinary. The most effective way to develop your intuition is through observation of your own body language.

3) Learn to Take Calculated Risks - No one ever succeeds without taking risks. It’s a basic fact of life that we all conveniently seem to forget when it doesn’t suit us. When we do that, our aspirations tend to turn into a form of day dreaming.
