I am at the point in my life where I feel I know all there is to know. I have been though enough to know that I can handle life.

And I realize realisticlly that I have a long ways to go and that I have to keep on growing. what are healthy risks and ways to stretch and challenge yourself to do better and be better in life body,mind, soul and spirit?

The first think you need to do is a reality check, YOU do not now every thing there is to know! yes at times it does sound like it but, your not even close, Some of the best things in life happen by accidents, and you can not know, or prepare for them. so I don't know what else to say, but even the smartest person in the world has so much to learn!!!!

There is always something new to learn, have you done some traveling you could get in the car unplanned one day and just drive I'm sure that there is a different place that you want to see, I think it would be great because its spontaneous. You could take up a new class at a college you would be learning something new. Try a exercising class this can relax your mind body and soul. Volunteer your time for people that need help I hope that I gave you a few ideas

Life is extremely easy for most people in so-called civilised countries in our age. I doubt very much you've been tested. A few generations ago in the U.S. and Europe people knew war, political upheaval, poverty on a grand scale...I never heard of any of those people saying they knew all there was to know.

Truth is there is more to know each hour, and I, for one, find it difficult to study a tenth part of what I would be interested in knowing.

History and Fiction are two available sources where you will find reasons to reflect on whether or not you have experienced a small part of what is possible. Do you have a firm knowledge of history? human biology? mathematics?

Have you read the memoirs of any truly great individuals? Can you figure out how Julius Caesar was capable of subduing the Gauls? How Churchill could know in 1930 the events of 1936-45?

Are you still with the best person you've known in your lifetime?

Have you ever stripped yourself of all your relationships and made your way in a new location?

You sound fortunate, but I am sure there is a lot more out there.

That's good to have such a optimistic view on life.



Being prepared for life's challenges means having an open mind and the patience to deal with.



You will never truly discover the meaning of life (if any), but enjoying the "little things" are far better than surrounding yourself with drama.



Good luck on your journeys - and im not sure where the question cam in.

First, if you really know all there is to know, care to share and let us all in on the secret?

Second, I used to think I'd cracked the code to life the universe and everything too, but then I kept finding stuff that didn't fit. The keeps growing and changing, so the questions keep changing and the answers become obsolete.

As long as you live, you will continue to learn. Never say this is it, and close your mind. That's always when you miss something good! Try new hobbies and sports to challenge yourself, maybe volunteer with a local charity? There's a whole world out there - you know what they say... Just Do It!!

Do things the things you're scared of or things that make you uncomfortable. Do things you normally wouldn't do. Step outside the box. Become involved with different types of people...You'll continue to grow and the challenges will become different. You'll learn from each one whether you realize it or not.



Always read. Read things you wouldn't normally. Read Kids books, read metaphysics, read the bible, read Fiction, Read porn. Experience life.

Question everything. Do everything you ever wanted to do. Travel. Live in a foreign country for a while.

Well as hard as it is to believe, there wil be no ONE that would know everything there is to know. Healthy knowledge is books, try meditating.

Life will never be souly about knowing everything. Try to be content.

you are a deluded fool trying to justify your delusion...



if you know it all why not, instead of attempting to impress us with it, do you not get out and teach - not through any state-operated curricular educational rubric but really teach?



believe me - if you truly believe that you know all there is to know then you KNOW nothing.......



try to accept what I say without anger or instant response -think about it..............



then think again -

you have the answer to your 'challenge' question......

it is in you.........

For starters, you could learn to spell and/or type.
