Have you heard this popular quote: You never realise the value of something until it's gone?

Many of us have been sitting on certain decisions because of fear. You are too afraid to move because of fear of the unknown. "What if I fail?" you ask, but ๐ก๐š๐ฏ๐ž ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐š๐ฅ๐ฌ๐จ ๐š๐ฌ๐ค๐ž๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฅ๐Ÿ, "๐–๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐ข๐Ÿ ๐ˆ ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐œ๐œ๐ž๐ž๐?"

Imagine a baby not attempting to walk because it is so terrified of falling. If it stayed terrified, it would never learn to walk.

The baby must take little steps forward, experiencing many falls along the way, until it can finally take several steps unassisted and without falling.

Apply for that job, scholarship, promotion, speaking opportunity etc. Don't overthink it and don't auto-reject yourself.

Remember I shared yesterday that you are the architect of your destiny and are not allowed to be a spectator in your creation story.
