F.E.A.R

In today’s society, I believe there is one word that drives us, from how we act around others to what we do as jobs and or hobbies. The four-letter word can be broken into four separate words;

Failure

We fear any type of failure, whether we fail an exam, failing at a project you put all your strength into, or even failing at being a ‘good’ person. But what if we look at it another way? What if every failure can be a lesson? Life is all about learning, how to pick yourself back up and try again. Failure is inevitable, it’s part of our lives, whether we want it or not, but what makes the difference is how you look at how you stuffed up and try again and keep trying till you achieve what you want to achieve. I have failed so many times in my life, failed school exams, failed university, and failed to “please” my family. It’s hard but despite this, I have kept going!

Emotions

People can be afraid to show how they truly feel, either ‘putting on a smile when you’re hurting and/or when you feel vulnerable. I believe there is power in being honest about your feelings. Emotions are another inevitable we can’t run from, so why not face those emotions? You never know, you might just get support from people and it may become a healing moment for you

Adversity

Another fear of us all, I feel strongly that you should love who you are, no matter what challenges you face. Whether it’s physical or emotional adversity, as long as you’re proud of yourself, and no one can take the pride you have for yourself away, only if you allow them!

Rejection

Not everyone in the universe is going to like or agree with everything you do/are, but if you believe in yourself, accept yourself as you are including all your flaws.

My Life Mantra: Perfection is your Imperfection. You’re OK!
