Just Starting Something New
Starting something new can raise a flood of different emotions regardless of who you are and what you know. Your level of education does not reflect your level of competence. Usually it's your ability to work through challenges with a productive or positive end result.
FEAR
Fear is the cousin to failure. It causes procrastination and paralysis; which will hold you in place and block your growth. Try to recognize if fear is hindering you, if so; identify what you are scared of. For example, a child might be scared to learn how to ride their bike. Are they scared of falling or are they scared of getting hurt if they fall? Are they scared of getting hurt or are they scared of being laughed at? Identify your fear so you can identify your battle. Once you know your battle, you can equip yourself properly. If the child is afraid of falling, they can use training wheels, if they're scared of getting hurt, they can use bodily protection (like helmets or knee pads), if they don't want to get laughed at, they can practice in private- but they can still learn to ride their bike.
There are other emotions that can hinder us but I just wanted to touch base on this because I think it's the most common. If you'd like me to touch on more then drop a comment.

Yes please more! more!...because I came to realize that the same way faith brings the good things to happen in your life, fear causes the bad things to happen if you feed it too much. It happened to one of my co-workers. She kept feeding her fear of dying in a car accident until it actually happened. I remember telling her, " Yvonne, you need to stop saying that."
I like the old quote !" Feel the Fear and do it anyway! ". There are no restrictions in life, other than those we create ourselves! Thanks for the post ! Cheers, Lisa
