Living Life!

  FEAR.

  4 little letters that only take a second to say but can take a lifetime to overcome. We all suffer from fear at some time in our life, some more than others. Fear of failure, abandonment, phobias, all forms of fear that can have an incredibly profound effect on us.

   It holds us back and stops us living to our full potential. We need to face those fears and harness them to our advantage, grab life by the scruff of the neck and LIVE it! I am guilty of living in fear and letting it stop me from even attempting to be where i want to be. But I've finally decided to take those chances and risks, whats the worst that can happen right?

  Lets say for example i want to change career or go for a promotion at work but I'm too scared to try. If I don't try i don't lose but i also don't gain a single thing! At least if i face that fear i have a chance of going somewhere instead of staying in my rut. If i don't get the job/promotion will it kill me? No!  The worst that happens is I feel despondent for a few days but if I pick myself up and keep on trying who knows where i will get.

  As Franklin D Roosevelt said the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. If we allow our fears to conquer us we will never live our life to its full potential. Remember its YOUR life so its up to you, are you going to start taking those risks and make the most of life? Or are you going to stay stuck in the same old place for the next however many years you have and end up looking back saying i wish...? I know which I'm Choosing!!  LIVING LIFE!
