I am someone who loves and lives by routine. If I do something I have to plan it and my life isn't particularly exciting. I came away from a movie recently thinking how I want to change this and howni need to embrace life and live in the moment before I see what is so often the case when people get to a certain age and realise they didn't do that.

I don't want to live completely carelessly but what are things I can do to be spontaneous, live life to the max, embrace life etc. I mean, I have a full time job and rent and bills to pay so things like travelling around the world type of thing, though exciting, isn't really an option.

Any help, tips etc appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

P.s. I'm aware of the irony of planning spontaneity! (link)
I have the perfect answer for you: Say yes more often.

When people ask you if you want to go to a concert, say yes. Regardless of money or etc.

Someone asking if you want to take a road trip? Say yes.

Less thinking. More doing. Say yes more often. Pretty soon you will realize that more you experience more exciting events in life.

Thanks, and I suppose that accepting plans will help lead to me making plans too.

Thanks again!
