Fear is Failure

This week has been a journey that I never dreamed possible. I have been pursuing my dreams and have been offered three wonderful job opportunities, all are a dream of mine come true.

But for the last two days I have felt a tightness in my chest, a feeling of insecurity, doubt and hesitation. Even to the point it has been difficult to speak and breath at the same time, and my hands seem to tremble non-stop.

So I decided to dig down into what is going on and realized it is fear.

I have worked so many years to accomplish my dream job and now I am faced with three opportunities... and must make the decision in the next 24 hours. Who would ever thought!

But why the fear? I realized it is the fear of the unknown that I am about to embark upon. Getting out of my comfort zone if you may.

Even some low self esteem issues rising up....

But if you find yourself in a situation maybe similar to this...

Hear is a thought to ponder on...

To pursue your dreams whatever they might be with some fear issues is not failure
Doubting your decisions at times is not failure.
The old monkey on the back, this is crazy, is not failure.
I am fooling myself I can't really do this, is not failure.
I don't deserve this opportunity, is not failure.

Failure is not even trying.
Failure is giving up before you reach your goals.
Failure is not Fear!

So with this in mind I will press on. And want to encourage all you other ladies to join in the march of facing our fear and realizing we are human and will have doubts and fears.

But we will rise above it all! We will conquer!

God Bless you this day and every day after.
