It's a good thing we know that failure is inevitable, but it's a sad experience when we try to live our life avoiding that which will make us successful. Amazingly, sometimes just not having a limiting belief is enough to ensure success, or to have an experience that disproves a particular limitation. We have always live our lives trying not to step on other people toes why we unknowingly step on our toes. We then become entangled and fall. Thus, we end up colliding with our fears. It is at this junction that the saying "it is not the strongest man that survive the trials of fear, or the flamboyant citizen", holds true. I am proud to tell you that fear has no respect for any man except the individual that confronts him. Fear is a scenario similar to David and Gollalite as illustrated in the account of the Holy book ‘the Bible.’ While we are trying to please others, we end up hurting ourself thus, the saying ‘we cannot please everybody is affirm. Face the fear, and enjoy your victory. Akellah in Akellah and the bee, proved this to us when she penned her father’s signature because her mother wouldn’t give her the audience she demanded.
In facing fear, we learn to make choices. The good news is that when we make the right choice, we live with it forever. But the bad news is when we make the wrong choice, we are sometimes disturbed instead of looking for the next possible choice to counter the wrong choice we make. Don’t get me wrong, everyone in his/ her life time has made wrong choice(s) but what counts is how we react to this choice(s). Choices are like words, once spoken cannot be retrieved. Instead, words are used to correct the previous one. Same is choice, once made, cannot be undo, except a counter choice is made.
Don’t live a life of fear because it does not exist.
