Trying new experiences not only helps us vanquish some fears but it also allows us to expand our minds and learn. Your brain will thank you for trying. Unless you try new things you may never know your true passion, purpose or power. The more new and fun things you do, the more fulfilling and satisfying your life becomes.

Psychological research suggests that, in the long run, experiences make people happier than possessions. That's in part because the initial joy of acquiring a new object such as a car, fades over time. People become accustomed to seeing it all the time. Experts say experiences on the one hand, continue to provide happiness through memories. Another reason for increased happiness long after the event occurred. Another reason for increased happiness in experiences the researchers found was that people felt a a greater sense of vitality or 'being alive' during the experience and in reflection a researcher said, 'As nice as your new computer is, its not going to make you feel alive'.
