Don't Allow Fear To Destroy Your Dreams
(1 minute read)
If you are going to extinguish your dreams, then make sure it’s for a legitimate reason, and not because of fear. The fear of failure, or the unknown, can cause debilitating paralysis. While experiencing fear is a normal part of the human condition, it should not ever be elevated to the status of crushing our hopes and dreams. And it absolutely should not ever prevent us from pursuing our callings in life.
If you have a purpose, a vision or an aspiration, calling out to you to do something great, then you cannot surrender to fear. It is essential to recognize that even the most successful and accomplished individuals experience fear, self doubt and entertain negative thoughts. They are not above fear filled emotions. What sets them apart is precisely the fact that they persist in the face of their fears. They are afraid, but they do it anyway. Their desire to achieve outweighs their fear of failure. It is also worth acknowledging that their fears were just as legitimate as yours before they took their leap of faith and entered into the arena.
Take Inspiration From Those Who Are Fearful & Flawed, But Do It Anyway
If your self perception is that nobody in their right mind could ever overcome your fears, or that everyone would fold in the face of your challenges, you are mistaken. It’s been done by others who were just as human, vulnerable and anxious as you are. Right now, at this moment, many men and women are literally experiencing fear and apprehension about their futures, but are nonetheless committed to a path of adventure, self discovery and owning themselves. They are saying yes, despite the fact that powerful, internal, fear-filled voices are saying no. They are saying yes because they want to build something, they want to achieve something meaningful, they want to call something their own, they refuse to play it safe any longer and they have a vision of what lies beyond their fears. They have not just asked themselves: What if I fail ? They have also asked themselves: What if I succeed?
There are many individuals who, despite their fears and flaws, are willing to risk the possibility of failure and its consequences. They understand that surrendering to fear is an absolute guarantee of failure. “I know of no better life purpose than to perish in attempting the great and the impossible.” Friedrich Nietzsche
At TrueView, we are committed to the dream of financial success. We built our system for those imperfect individuals who, experience fear and anxiety, but wake up each morning and do it anyway.
