🌱03: Dealing With Fear

What’s the worst that could happen?

Let’s talk about fear. Why is it so crippling? So palpable, yet unseen. Feels real, yet unreal.

Sometimes it’s the uncertainty, the questioning, the what ifs, and the “can I” really?The fear of being inadequate, the fear of not being enough, the fear of failure, the fear of the unknown and the fear of not belonging.

Questions like:

Am I alone?

Do I have enough?

Do I know enough?

Will I be enough?

have filled my mind from time to time.

If you’re also going through this, You’re not alone.

On some days, I remind myself there’s no need to be afraid. On some other days, I can’t get it out of my head, and I hate that feeling. Maybe it’s okay to be afraid then, but I’ve only recently found out that Fear only has as much power as we give it.

So day by day, I’m learning to figure out how to deal with fear. Today, I decide to raise my head high like a champ. 

What’s the worst that could happen?
