Picture this.
You have an idea or a dream that makes you bubble over with excitement.
Maybe it's something fresh and new.
Maybe you've been planning it for years.
Just the mere thought of it makes you smile from the inside out.
When you envision it unfolding,
You feel a rush of enthusiasm.
But then suddenly,
Fear sets in.
And before you know it,
Excitement turns to trepidation,
And progress becomes paralysis.
Let's face it,
Fear can be a bully,
And many a plan has been spoiled by it.
But the good news is,
It doesn't have to be this way.
Because guess what?
You can feel fear and still move forward.
You see,
Fear is not the issue.
We all feel fear.
The problem occurs when we allow fear to stop us from pursuing the things that we want.
If you are feeling overwhelmed and intimidated by fear,
You're not alone.
So let's find our way through fear together.
We'll start with the breath.
Inhale through your nose.
Exhale through your mouth.
Inhale through your nose.
Exhale through your mouth.
Inhale through your nose.
And exhale through your mouth.
Continue to breathe naturally.
As dreadful as it can feel,
Fear is merely a sensation,
Just energy in the body.
Think of someone you see as being successful,
Accomplished,
Or at the top of their game.
Maybe it's someone famous.
Maybe it's someone you know personally.
Now here's a secret you may not know.
This person did not succeed because they had no fear.
They succeeded because they felt fear and did it anyway.
You can do it too.
Sit back,
Relax,
And allow yourself to be empowered by the following quotes.

Get out of my way.

Bravery is feeling the fear,
The doubt,
The insecurity,
And deciding that something else is more important.
Inhale deeply.
Exhale slowly.
Slowly begin to reawaken your body.
Wiggle your fingers and toes.
Rotate your wrists and ankles.
Slowly open your eyes.
Your dreams await you.
And no amount of fear can stand in your way.
So go out there and be great.
Namaste.
