Adventurous Quotient [AQ]

When was the last time you did something for the first time?

This is one question that needs to be asked to oneself from time to time. The idea of doing something new might be a nightmare for people who always likes to play the safe game. In my opinion life gets more interesting and enjoyable when you learn new things and do things that you wouldn't dare otherwise. I think the answer to this question can help in deducing the AQ [Adventurous Quotient].

AQ = ((The number of new things attempted in the last year / 12) - The number of days between today and the day when you attempted your latest new thing ) x 100

I believe that measuring AQ for the current year would be more reasonable since people would be more interested in how interesting you are now. Having been adventurous for a long time might help, but history is for the books and today is the time to enjoy and be adventurous.

The reason i have a 12 there in the denominator is because i believe that a person who attempts to do a new thing once every month is extraordinary. According to me the more adventurous a person is the more interesting he / she will be. As for my AQ, i think it shld be between 40% - 60%. Not so very good... but am sure i'll try hard to raise it to a more respectable level. The latest new thing that i've started is to learn Spanish, thanks to the site tryMango, a free and easy way to learn new languages. What is you AQ?
