“You can conquer almost any fear if you will make up your mind to do so.
For remember, fear doesn’t exist anywhere except in the mind.”
Dale Carnegie
1888-1955, Speaker and Author
You have nothing to lose. What would happen if you stepped out and attempted the things you wish to do? One of two things will happen. One, you will succeed; or Two, you will fail. These are the odds, no matter what the project. We must risk failure if we wish to succeed. This is a hard and fast truth. Take a deep breath and begin. Encourage yourself! Write down all of the reasons Why taking the first step in situations you have been avoiding, would be beneficial. You deserve to feel connection and you deserve to step out into the world and enjoy what it has to offer. It is a wide open world with so many possibilities! You can reinvent yourself as many times as you like.
There are NO rules.
It is Undoubtedly True.
Whatever you consider,
or dream about becoming,
Whatever you wish you were doing,
but instead are avoiding
Whatever your heart desires to do
Begin It!
Begin It!
or about it you’ll stew.
You’ll Never know What you’re Capable of
Where your skills are best suited
What You’re REALLY made of
Until You take a deep Breath
Take a deep Breath Right Now
step into new Territory
To Yourself make a vow
For the Journey of a thousand miles Begins with one step
and the next one that follows is easier yet
and the next one
and next one will invariably flow
from a place called your courage
you are getting to know.
And this place called courage
you must search for to find
It resides behind Fear,
In the Back of your mind.
You can get them to trade places
You’re in charge of your thoughts
Decide which one makes YOUR choices
It won’t be for Naught.
A whole wide world awaits you
Possibilities abound
for the courage you misplaced
once was lost
but now is found
Celebrate its return
Invite it for lunch!
For Breakfast
and Dinner,
Invite it a Bunch
Let it move into the front of your mind
Begin It! Begin it!
It’s about time.
Everyone of us is worthy. We all have someting special to give to the world. Commit yourself to sharing it, and take a chance. The truth is, you need no one’s approval to speak your piece. And the world would be a very Boring place if only a few points of view were represented. Your individuality is your Gift, and gifts are for sharing ;)
“You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ You must do the thing which you think you can not do.”
-Eleanor Roosevelt
