Internal War and an old dog

I finally pushed the Build It button. I never thought that putting myself into the digital world would be so hard. I had an internal war going on. Self doubt grabbed me with both hands and the 'what if' voice shouted in my ear.

That something, that little voice that said 'You can do it' was only just heard above the noise. Before Self Doubt could stop me, I pushed the Build It button. Now I feel ten foot tall.

There was a poster in a store window. It read 'Everything you desire lies beyond fear'. It was right. Self Doubt hasn't been a good friend in the past. It held me back when I could have pushed forward. Today I won. You will too. Push the Build It button!

See, an old dog can learn a new trick.
