1/365 Are you Afraid? I am
There are many things I am afraid of. Not all of them stand in my way. But some fears do impact the way I carry on with what I do.
I have read books and articles about overcoming fears and even tried some techniques to get rid of them. I realize some of my fears are not even rational. Yet I have them. There seems to be no immediate solution for many of them.
The only thing I am able to do, or at least learned to do is live with those fears. Acknowledge their very existence and accept that irrespective of them being there, I got to do what I got to do.
They come in front and stop me. Sometimes I succumb to it and sometimes I share it with people I trust and use their help to navigate through it.
Over the years I have learned that if I have a fear, I don’t need to live through it alone, I can ask for help.
