There's a simple four letter "F" word that affects our lives in many ways. It can stop us dead in our tracks, literally paralysing those who come into contact with it. Lives can be ruined, human potential smashed and destiny can go unfulfilled in the presence of this very word. The word which we are talking of is the word "Fear".
Fear is an emotion that most people willingly allow to influence their thoughts. Fear is highly useful when facing actual physical harm like staring a colossal carnivore in the eye. However in today's world that is a rare occurrence.
For the most part people are afraid of the stories they tell themselves. They think "so-n-so might say something if I did that" and "What will they think" or "he/she might laugh". Then the story starts itself, they now know what they will feel inadequate "if" someone else decides to speak.
That Fear can cause you to not try a new hairstyle, buy the clothes you really want, quit your job, and start a hobby or business. Your true potential may never be reached all because You are afraid of what someone else may or may not say or think. You become afraid of the fairytale that Fear has created for You, so you stop and just forget about whatever you desired.
To help You Get the "F" Out, ask Yourself is this a Colossal Carnivore ready to take a bite out of me or, is this just a story. If it is just a story be brave, most fairytales have happy endings.
Here's to Getting the "F" Out
