Face Your Fears Anyway

You are not alone. You are going to go through your fears. You are not going to be messed up by your fears. You are better, bigger than your fears.

If you want to get something done, understand that fear is going to show up anyway. You can’t stop fear from being fear. But do not let it stop you from moving forward.

Face it. Take small actions. Do not overthink things. If you have something in front of you, even if you have not done it before, do not overthink it. Do it!

You have nothing to lose. But you have learning to gain. It is better to try than not. Because we grow when we try. We get better when we face our fears. We get smarter when we try new things, when we meet new people, and when we think new thoughts.

If you have been too scared to move out of your comfort zone, if you have been too scared to take more risks, to challenge your assumptions, to face your demons, to do what you love to do, to search for a new job, to take a new course, to read new books, to visit new places, not because you do not know what you want, but because you don’t know who you are, facing your fears will make life easier for you to live.

Facing your fears is the only way forward. If you don’t want your fear to kill you, you must get ahead of your fear.

But you are not going to be able to remove your fears from your life. That is not going to happen. You are not going to be able to overcome your fears by avoiding them. You are not going to be able to overcome your fears by doing nothing.

To face your fear, you must have the courage to stand before your fear. Because without fear, your courage won’t grow. Fear makes courage possible.

You get things done when you face your fears, when you say, ‘enough is enough’. No matter what is standing in front of me, I am going to go forward. I am going to press on. I am not going to say no to my dreams.’

Do you have the courage to face your fears? If not, why not? What are you doing about it?

As always, you are more, not less!
