ARE YOU FOLLOWING YOUR DREAMS OR YOUR FEARS?

We can end up being driven by fear as a result of a traumatic experience, unrealistic expectations or if we grow up in a highly controlled environment. 

Fear makes us miss out on great opportunities because we are afraid to venture out. We play it safe, avoid risks and do our best to maintain the status quo. 

Fear is a self-imposed prison that makes you play small which keeps you from being the full version of you. Fear is a push away from the unwanted instead of a pull towards the wanted. 

For survival, fear has been a crucial feeling. However the things we are afraid of today are rarely life threatening. 

Next time you feel fear sneaking up on you, thank your emotional guidance system for trying to protect you and remind it that you are safe and that you will go ahead despite the feeling of fear. 

Move towards your desires with curiosity and let your desires lead the way instead of your fears.
