If there was EVER a time to allow FEAR into our lives, it would be now. Yet, what I can tell you is that if you are allowing fear into your mind and heart, it is only making your situation worse. We have had a ton of uncertainty and concern with the pandemic and everything going on but allowing Fear to control you will not improve your success, it will only hold you back.
This will keep you afraid. It will cause you to be depressed. It will overtake your attitude, cause you stress and chaos. It will give you Anxiety. It causes additional health issues creating you to be MORE susceptible to catching the virus and more probable to other illnesses and health break down. It wears down your system, raises your blood pressure, clouds your thoughts, and overtakes your energy. This will cause you to feel tired and worn out even when you have not exerted yourself.
“Your Success Begins when Your Fear Ends.” ~ Kris Barney. This statement is true. Think about it, when were you faced with fear recently? What did you do? Did you find a way to push through that fear and do what you needed to anyway or did you allow that fear to stop you or hold you back? Have you pushed through your fear and started teaching your children in homeschool or have you supported a neighbor? Have you been sick with this virus and had to drop everything and find the courage to gain your health and strength back and win the battle of your life? Have you had a loved one that has gotten infected and is fighting for their life or have you had a loved one lose their life and your are in the depths of this in the most painful moments of your life?
These have all been Amazing! They have all given me tremendous growth and belief in myself as well as Courageous Confidence. But a lot of the other things in my life that were difficult and even very scary have also given me those same feelings as I trusted the process and my journey and gone for it full force! Some of those have been:
This list could go on and on. There are literally thousands of things that I could put on here, ranging from getting married, going to school, finding friends, to what I do all the time that is listed as the #1 Fear of people, even more than death, and that is public speaking.
Were there scary issues? Of course! Was there bumper-to-bumper traffic? Yes! Was it scary? Yes! Did I survive? YES! AND not only that, but I gained all kinds of courageous confidence as I pushed through the fear. I created accomplishment mentality that soared within me and gives me confidence and reassurance for the next time I travel. It allowed me to conquer limitations that hold me back and freed me from my own thoughts and feelings of fear.
