There was a time I almost didn’t show up… I preferred hiding under my shell.
Not because I wasn’t capable.Not because I didn’t have the opportunity.
But because I was really SCARED and Sentimental.
Scared of what people would say.......Scared of getting it wrong.......Scared of looking like I didn’t know what I was doing.
I remember the first time I was supposed to speak on a really huge public stage.... Ahhh..… ...my heart was beating fast like I was about to do something illegal 😅
I almost cancelled...... Cos' many questions were running through my mind.
What if I don't do well?... I knew I had value but what if I lacked the capacity to present it the right way..... What if my audience would not like my style?!.
“What if nobody takes me serious?”“What if I say the wrong thing?”“What if I fail publicly?”
But then, I asked myself one question…
“What if this fear is the only thing standing between me and the life I’ve been praying for?”
And that was it..... I spoke in that meeting.
And guess what? Nothing terrible happened.
In fact… that one “scary” step opened doors I didn’t even know existed, so many persons met me and many others chatted me up on how they got so much value from that meeting.
That singular meeting taught me something,:
Fear doesn’t mean STOP.
Most times, it means you’re standing at the edge of your next level.
Believe me when I say the saddest thing isn’t failure…It’s staying in one spot because you were too afraid to move.
You don’t need to have it all figured out.
You just need to move… move scared.
Send that message.Start that business.Post that content.Apply for that opportunity.
Because on the other side of fear…Is the version of you you’ve been praying to become.
So face it.
Or you'll keep wondering “what if…”
It's your choice 💯🔥
I'm rooting for you ❤️
