You’ve been holding me back all those years and if I’m honest, I’ve started to get comfortable having you around.
You gave me this cozy(ish) space where I’ve been feeling safe(ish). Truth be told, you’ve never made me feel completely at peace within myself but at least you have successfully prevented me from taking risks, trying new things and putting my ideas out there.
You’ve managed pretty well to keep me put in my tiny little corner, such a little space in such a vast world to explore, full of adventures and life experiences.
But you see, old friend, I’ve grown tired of feeling little and not good enough in my cage.
I am tired of seeing (and reading about) people try, fail, get up, try again and succeed. Because they are moving forward and it feels like I have been stuck in the same place for too long.
By watching them LIVE their lives, I’ve realised that they are making the most of their time on Earth while I am cautiously on stand by.
I’ve realised that to be ready to fail is to be prepared for success. I have seen that ACTION CURSES FEAR and INACTION CREATES TERROR.
And I am fed up waiting for the perfect timing to FINALLY ACT on my dreams and ideas. Because deep down I’ve known all along that the time would never be just right.
I know now that all my dreams are just on the other side of you, dear fear of failure.
I also know that if I don’t do anything to overcome you, I am now all that I will ever become. I am not ready to accept that.
And so, old friend, today I decide to bid you farewell, because you no longer serve me.
>> If you're dreaming of having the confidence to step out of that cozy-ish cage, get in touch!
With love,
