Face Your Fears

Don’t let fear stop you from achieving your dreams!

On your way to success you have to confront your fears. Most people let fear stop them from making the necessary steps to achieve their dreams.

Face your fears.  Do one thing a day you are afraid of.  There are countless quotes on facing our fears, and leaders telling you how they can help you overcome the obstacles that you have put in your own way.  I’m here not to tell you how, but to tell you that you can.  You can face your fears, you can overcome your fears, and nothing you fear is greater than your capability to do what you are born to do.  What it is that you fear is not what will challenge you most – it will be the unexpected obstacles or situations that arise.  Think to yourself, what is the WORST thing that could happen?  It’s very likely that it’s not that daunting to face…it’s more what you don’t know or see coming that frightens you, and those things are also, no that daunting.

What it comes down to is this: You can do it.  You are capable, you have the desire to do this, and you have the where with all to work around anything that comes your way.  The worse thing that might happen?  Let me tell you what it is, it’s that you’ll fail.  That’s it.  Not so scary now is it?

You might be saying, “But no one likes to fail!”

Here’s what I want you to remember. Failure is nothing more than information.

Failure simply tells you that you are looking in the wrong direction; that it’s time to try a different strategy, or shift a dream.

Think ahead to one year from now.  You can either be on your way to making your dream happen, you can be in the middle of it, or you can be where you are now – not having tried.  Or, and again, let’s face the fear of failure, you can be done with it, having tried – and learned how to go after it again, or ready to put it behind you and move onto a bigger and better dream.  Either way, your fears aren’t going anywhere – and you aren’t either if you don’t try.  So stand up tall, brace yourself, and get ready to get moving.  Your fears have no place here anymore.
