Fear
9:10 PMWhat is holding you back from dreaming a dream and following through with it?
For me, the answer to that question is simple; fear.
The fear of failure.
The fear of rejection.
The fear of ridicule.
The fear of not quite meeting up to people's expectations.
The fear that someone will perform much better than you.
I turned 30 this year and have been doing a lot of soul searching. What do I want my next 30 years to look like? What do I want to take with me from the past 30, and what do I need to put down and walk away from? It has been quite a process.
There have been so many times that I have let my fear and insecurities hold me back from reaching my full potential or even paralyze me from attempting to achieve or at times even dream big dreams.
So.... if fear wasn't a factor for me I would....
- train for and complete a 5k
- market my photography and just go for it
- bring my personal style into the marketing I do for my clients and trust my instincts
- not worry about being accepted, but instead focus on who God want's me to be
- dye my hair blonde. (just kidding! They do say blondes have more fun though, right?)
