SAY SO LONG TO FEAR AN DOUBT

Good morning everyone and happy Tuesday.  Did you ever come up with a great idea and almost immediately squash it?  It seems that we need no time at all to tell ourselves with absolute confidence that our great idea will never work.  The excitement of possibilities is cut short by two things.  Fear and doubt, good friends that hover over us like two very unwelcome guests.

Today's quote is, "Fear is what makes us halt and hesitate long enough to question and doubt our abilities."  Fear is an important emotion.  Fear tells us not to stick our hands in a lions cage or drink sour milk.  Fear is there to stop us from doing dangerous things not to stop us from living the lives we want.

Everything starts with an idea.  Next comes the excitement and confidence to go through with it.  That is the hard part.  We find it so much easier to erase any ounce of confidence in ourselves, allowing our great ideas to turn to dust.

Anyone out there remember the Pet Rock?  Yea, that's right.  A Pet Rock.  Sounds crazy, right?  Good thing the inventor didn't allow fear or doubt to stop him.  His idea started a craze that made him a small fortune.  I presume you've heard of Jeff Bezos.  You're picturing that Amazon logo right now aren't you?  Back in the early 90's he had this crazy idea of launching an online shopping platform that was perceived as stupid by many of his friends.  Good thing he didn't listen to them or any bit of fear or doubt he may have had.

There is only room for one voice in your head, the one that says go for it, what a great idea, you are amazing.  That's the one I want you to hear and listen to.  When fear and doubt raise their ugly heads, show them the door and let them know they have no place in you head or your life unless of course you have some sour milk in your fridge!

Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone! ~Love, Amy
