Day 12 - 30 Day Writing Challenge

These are the voices which we hear in solitude, but they grow faint and inaudible as we enter into the world. Society everywhere is in conspiracy against the manhood of every one of its members. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Is fear holding you back from living your fullest life and being truly self expressed? Put yourself in the shoes of the you who’s already lived your dream and write out the answers to the following:
Is the insecurity you’re defending worth the dream you’ll never realize? or the love you’ll never venture? or the joy you’ll never feel?
The answer to that is kind of obvious, no, but then why is it so hard to let go of those insecurities?
Will the blunder matter in 10 years? Or 10 weeks? Or 10 days? Or 10 minutes?
Again I answer, no. Any blunder or mistake mad is a way to learn and improve and to spring forward.
Can you be happy being anything less than who you really are?
Finally, again, the answer is no.
Now Do. The Thing. You Fear.
But how?
