How many times have you felt yourself shrink?
How many times have you made yourself small enough to fit into some role?
How many times have you kept your mouth shut when
you wanted to speak out or handed over your power to someone who didn't have your best interests at heart?
How many times have you told yourself, "I can't. I'm not strong enough. I'm not courageous or confident enough to be all that I desire to be?"
Fear is built into our human operating system. It is a useful emotion that has gone seriously awry. Fear can make us choose what we believe will keep us safe even when the opposite is true. It can make us believe that we can't do it, we are wrong, the cost is too high, the path ahead too difficult. Fear disguises itself with the voice of certainty, filling us with worry, doubt & even dread. Fear is a very real emotion that can render us powerless.
Every time fear wins, you lose. Every time you choose fear, you lose sight of your highest aspirations. You fall prey to being controlled by your history rather than rise to the future that you desire & deserve.
