Everyone Has Been Scared Before — It’s Okay
Everyone has to face their fears.
Fears vary.
Some fears are considered small, some large.
Leaving your house can be scary.
Interviews can be scary.
A first day at a new job can be scary.
Going to the dentist can be scary.
Driving can be scary.
Flying a plane can be scary.
Moving can be scary.
Meeting new people can be scary.
Being alone can be scary.
Trying anything new can be scary.
Being scared can be good.
Once you face what scares you, you will no longer be afraid.
You will learn and grow.
Isn’t it crazy how we are scared to do things that will make us better?
That’s what we are mean to do as humans, learn and grow.
I know I’m scared of lots of things.
Even as an adult, I’m more scared than ever before.
For those who can relate, why are we like this?
Is this just how we are wired?
The answer is inconclusive and all we know that it’s a complex mix between nature versus nurture.
Others seem to move forward easily.
