Fear

Sometimes people are afraid of material things like the dark, snakes, bees (for me). But one fear that most people have in common is the fear of failing. So we choose not to do something because we might mess up and it might not turn out like we planned. We choose instead to stay home and do the things we know and not try anything new. People of this coming generation need to get out of the house. Get off your bums and do something different. Make a change for something you believe in. Start now and conquer that fear of failure. Starting small and progressing with each new thing would be a huge accomplishment. No one wants to end their life saying they have done what they always knew how to do. People want to say I have done everything I wanted to do and conquered my fears. I want people to see my life's work in this world long after I am gone. It is never too early or to late too start your life.

  1. Your reflections are right on! I just read about a guy who enrolled in classes to be a stand up comedian and failed miserably when he actually had to do it. But, what a brave thing to do! Keep thinking like that and keep trying new things!
