I Walked on Fire

Written by Jimmy on Mar 7th, 2008 | Filed under: Personal

Have you ever walked on fire? If you like motivation seminars, you should already know about it. It’s called firewalk. I just did it two days ago, in a motivation seminar. The speaker says that after we walk on fire, we will feel more confident, and it can make your mental blocks go away.

Actually, I didn’t want to do it, because my close friend did it about a year ago, and her feet got injured. She had to take medications for about a month. More than that, we, the seminar attendees, were asked to put our name and sign a letter that says we are responsible for what happens at the firewalk. So if I got injured, I shall never blame the motivator!

But, because all of my friends were going to do it, I thought to myself, “What the hell! I’ll do it!”. And I did it! :D It was not easy to start, but then after I stepped my feet’s first step, it just happened. I walked through the fire unharmed, it was like walking on warm sands. But one time is enough, when my friend asked me to do it again, I refused :) But a lot of the attendees did it over and over again.

The motivator said that the key element to walk on fire successfully is to believe that you can do it. If you believe you can do it, you can do anything! My friend who got injured, said to me that she was really not sure that she could do it, so she got injured. Well, after I did it, I have more confidence in myself. But did it boost my confidence? No.. just a little (too bad for me) :(

Here are some photos of the events. I took it with my mobile phone. I hope I can get some videos from the seminar organizer. Do you have the confidence that you can walk on fire?
