It's not who you are that holds you back, it's who you think you're not

Have you ever wanted to try out for a sports team, intramural team, or just play with the group of people near your area who meet up to play Basketball, Ultimate Frisbee, etc? I know you have (unless you absolutely loathe sports and its not your thing). What has stopped you? Humility? Not being good enough? I don't look good playing sports? Not winning? For the majority of us its the same underlying fact: FEAR (for others its maybe the I don't have time excuse go read this post). Let me tell you one thing fear is not your friend, but is neither your enemy. It's what I like to term your "protector" its only trying to protect you because it doesn't want to see you get hurt. When you can let go of fear, and politely say, "Hey look fear I know you're only looking out for me, but you know what? Its going to be fine". Now, that is simple to say, and very difficult to do. Keep at it for a while analyzing how your emotions change when fear pops up into your mind. You'll get to a realization one day, that you can master the art of not fearing by simply being confident in who you are and who you are meant to be.

Remember you only live once so stop waiting around with an umbrella for it to rain, challenge your fears, and just do life!

Am I ready?

Have you ever wanted to move to a new place? You know pack up your bags, your life, and say goodbye to everything you've ever known just so you can start fresh. It takes a lot of courage, letting go of your fears, and accurate planning to actually go through with it. Maybe you've lived in a small town your whole life, and you've always imagined what it would be like to live in a big city? Perhaps its the other way around you've lived in a big city your whole life, but now you want a change of scenery and a slower pace of life. Whatever the reason is for such thoughts crossing your mind, just know one thing if you do not take the initiative to do something about it you'll just end up pondering about it your whole life. Change is a good thing even for those folk who are completely against it and will never adhere to the art of change. Follow your heart, and do what you've always thought of doing. It'll be worth it in the end!


Remember you only live once so pack up all your belongings, say see ya later to those you love (or maybe take them with you), get ready to have an adventure, and just do life!

A man's bestfriend

Have you ever wanted to be-friend a dog or even just pet a dog? The only reason you haven't done this, is because you have a fear of these furry little creatures. Many people develop such fears through a bad childhood experience when a dog "attacked" you. Now that's nothing to be ashamed off or feel what will everybody else think. Tell yourself and believe it that you will conquer this fear, which in reality is just an illusion of your conscious mind. Take it one step at a time. You know like start by getting yourself acquainted with dogs by just being around them: You go to the dog, don't let the dog come to you, sitting in the same room as one, petting it lightly while someone holds it, and in due time you'll gather up the courage to tackle that fear and gain a new friend. 

Remember you only live once so address your fear, prepare your fingers to feel the soft goodness of animal fur, and just do life!
