Feel the Fear and Do it anyway

So you're standing at the bottom of a foot pole, harnessed in, Helmet On and ready to go. You begin to climb, higher, and higher, while the wind blows.

Your heart is racing, pounding harder and harder as you climb, a little from Adrenaline and a little because you are SCARED OUT OF YOUR WITS. Questioning yourself

" What am I doing?" , You want to stop, you pause, the people below cheer your name, shouting words of encouragement, "you can do it, Go on Dee", so you don't want to let them down.

As you approach the top, there is no turning back now, this is it. You've reached the top,

now all you have to do is just step off the ledge! Just one step, is all it takes.........you put one foot off the ledge, it dangles in mid air, you bring it back to safety quick time.

You step out again, you hear the cheers, but bring the foot to join the other, which is standing firmly on the metal ledge, while the wind blows, and you stand under the cloudy sky. You take a deep breath, ok this is it , now, and ...............................................................you step and fall, fall, fall to the ground landing on your back!!!! You feel amazing, so glad that you took that small step, which had such a hugh impact.

I write these words, because this was me, just a week ago, but in conquering this activity it taught me so much about Fear, and how Fear can hold us back from achieving our biggest, greatest goals, and discovering and growing into our higher selves.

It is indeed true that some of us are more fearless than others, but there is nothing wrong with feeling Fear. We are emotional beings after all, that is what makes us humans not Robots ( we won't get into A.I).

Never the less, when we find ourselves feeling Fear, we are to identify what is 'causing the Fear, then analyse the fear, and do what you're afraid of! Is it social anxiety? Starting a new business, asking that Man or Woman out on a date? Challenge yourself to come out of your comfort zone. How about that book you've been meaning to write, but because you are focused on what others may think of you, you're still undiscovered bestselling author! What are you Afraid of????!!!!

I have a special love for Butterflies, because of their life cycle, they represent to me new birth and growth, from a caterpillar, to being wrapped in their chrysalis , to breaking out the chrysalis in their new improved form with Wings, is remarkable to me.

So I say to you this day, what ever causes you to feel fear, it's ok, but don't let that fear hold you back, go get your life and fly high.

Every blessing to you
