If anything were possible, flying! :laugh:
I think cliff diving, too...somewhere beautiful, of course!0 -
I'm with the flying, that would be awesome,
One thing I want to try, even though the failure rate is high is hiking the entirety of the Appalachian Trail, all 2000 miles of it. But that needs an entire summer and I have four small kids, but it will be done one day, it's on my bucket list.0 -

There is nothing I wouldn't do if I knew there was no possibility of failure.
BTW, I don't "try" things. I just do them or not. "Trying" is a p@ssy way out of taking ownership.0 -
I'll start!

base jumping with a wing suit. similar idea.0 -
Learning Russian, I have alwayssss wanted to learn it!

No risk, no reward. I like the idea behind this post, but if fear of failing stopped me, I'd never do anything. Every failure was a step toward my successes.0 -
I would try everything.0
-
Purchasing a gorgeous house (that's been on the market for nearly 3 years) in the historic district of the town I live in & turning it into my photography studio. It would require a HUGE investment & the only thing stopping me is my fear of failure. Fear of not being approved for a loan, fear of not being able to turn a profit, fear of my business failing...but if I knew those failures weren't a possibility - that would dream would become a reality.0

Becoming a writer :frown:
This is my answer too. I feel like I'm stuck with permanent writers block, because I'm so terrified of being told my writing is crap.0 -
Uneven bars - without grips!0

Same here. I have two first drafts to two different novels under my belt and I won't even re-read them to edit for this exact reason0 -
Learn to play the saxophone and piano well.
Do the various treks, particularly everest, desert treks, north/south poles. Really though, it's money stopped me, more than fear of failure!0 -
Hang gliding.0

Triple axel!0

I'd submit my writing to someone, somewhere. (It's fantastic, you know.)0

As some other MFP fellows mentioned above, I would try to make my way into the writers world.
I would also become an actor, there's nothing I'd love more then to being an actress.
And something more accessible: I'd become a psychologist0 -
I have always wanted to be a radio DJ. But now it's all mass corporate feeds and not like it was when I was a kid with DJ's talking, spinning records, etc. But I can't do phonetics.... my sister and I get it from our Dad. We can't sound things out to save our lives and butcher so many words and names. So I would end up being more like Les Nessman on WKRP! Granted I'm not as bad as my Dad, I can learn how to correctly say things ... he would keep saying them wrong no matter how many times you corrected him! My car was a Navajo.... he called it a NAV-A-JOE instead of nav-uh-hoh.
My other thing would be to learn French. I want to go to Paris one day. I need to get Hooked on Phonics.... might put that on my Christmas list!Paris would be a great reward when I meet my ultimate goal. Sweet!
