Being Fearless

This is one of the many quotes that I have come across and have struck a cord with me.

I love this statement because it carries so much truth to it.
We learn fear at an early age. I remember as a kid being fearles and not worrying about anything except my favorite cartoon being on and if I’ll get chocolate milk before bed!

Then something happens early on and we become fearful. Maybe it starts off as monsters under the bed, but soon this fear manifests in every part of our life. Fear of failure, rejection, and the unknown. We become obsessed with needing to know how everything will turn out and what others think of us and if we are smart enough or good looking enough. These things are all so trivial and we may know it, but it doesn’t stop us from thinking about it late at night and questioning are previous choices in life.

But there comes a point and for me it was two years ago, where the lightbulb went off in my head and I thought “WOW! I’m sick and tired of the negativity. I am sick of the fear.” I began to do things because I genuinely wanted to and because my happiness came first and I didn’t care if it wasn’t good enough for anyone else- it was good enough for ME.

Being fearless is about knowing your worth without needing to be told by anyone else. Being fearless is having goals and dreams and having the confidence in yourself to know it WILL happen.
In fact, being fearless has a lot to do with this supreme sense of confidence in yourself, your abilities, knowledge, talents, ideas, etc.

You can plan for a bright future, but being fearless is knowing it may not go as planned but it will GO and it will all work out. Planting those seeds of fearlessness, positivity, confidence, and determination in our subconscious leads to us acting out in those same ways. I love daily affirmations because it reminds me of my strength and ambition and it makes me feel amazing.
We all have control over our own life and once you realize that you can design your future, you can build lasting relationships, you can tackle on any project, you can make your dreams come true- life becomes so much easier. You’re no longer in the waiting room of acceptance and approval from others, it becomes YOUR space and it’s quite liberating.
