The immortal words of FDR says it all: “[The] only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”
Fear can make whatever we want or need to do seem larger and worse than it really is. Having a healthy sense of fear can be a life-saver, but when fear keeps you from moving forward or taking the next step, then it becomes more of a hinderance than a helper.
Don’t let your fear and insecurities get in the way of whatever it is that’s been stopping you. Put all that energy of worrying about “what happens if…” to better use and see for yourself “what happens when“.
Remember, though there may be similarities, each person’s experience is their own, so don’t rely on what happened with other people and use that as an excuse for not stepping through your own fear.
Don’t be afraid—be curious!
Have a good weekend!
Keeping it light and singing LiLoLa [Live, Love, Laugh] all the way…
