There are so many times where we sit and think to ourselves, wow, I would love to do this or go here, or achieve this, yet we stop and then doubt our ability to do so. Then we ponder on all of the opportunities we did not take. But if we just believed in ourselves in the first place, we would never have to think about what could have been ever again. Taking a chance and believing in ourselves will stop any doubts in our minds.
There is this fear of not living up to our fullest potential, and regretting it in the end. But there is a way that this could be eliminated completely:
Be more confident in yourself. When you have a mindset that allows you to believe that anything is possible, it is easy to achieve what you have always wanted to.
You have so much more to offer than you even know. You have amazing talents that have been hidden because you are not confident enough in your talents to show others the greatness you have. But you absolutely should be! Your talents are what make you so amazing. No matter what it is, you should know how important it is to express who you are through them.
Never let someone put you down for what you are good at. You know just how important it is to you, so that is all that should matter.
Why are we so intimidated by others that we become so incredibly self conscious about our own abilities? There should be no reason to restrain yourself from what you love most. Especially not because you feel as if you will not shape up to the same amount of success as another person.
Each of us has something unique that makes us who we are and we should not allow the fear of failing take that away. There should be a time where we feel confident enough in ourselves to go out there and express who we truly are through our talents.
So, forget about the fear of not being good enough or not comparing to others because in the end it will only hold you back from everything that you've ever wanted to accomplish. There is nothing you cannot accomplish when you are confident.
Yes, things can go wrong or not as planned but that is just how life goes. You need to know that you can recover from mistakes, pull yourself together, and change things for the better. So, again just be confident!
Stop living in fear and start living your life.
