Got a nice run in!! Beautiful day…saw people walking and a ton of people getting ready to go canoeing.
I love my run time. It’s my ME time. It’s TIME that I OWN that I have full control over. My mind clears and resets. It’s TIME that I MAKE for me because it’s soooo therapeutic.
Part of my run (until I finished it) was listening to a book. Some great words from my book today that I have to share is about fear!
We all have fears. But really what is fear?! Can you actually bottle it up!? NO. So what is it. Just an emotion with an over zealous amount of control over us!?
Fear is like weeds in a garden. As hard as it sometimes, GIVING IN TO that emotion will not change the circumstance. Right? The fear emotion you feel before you do something (let me paint a dramatic image for you) like cliff diving isn’t going stop you from landing wrong. So instead we need to redirect that energy into something that’s more beneficial for ourselves. Yes cliff diving is a bit extreme but the BASIS of my message is the same. The fear of applying for a new job isn’t going to make your current position change. So use that energy to NAIL that application and OWN it! Get me?!
Don’t let the weeds of fear overtake your garden of life!
