Recently I realized that Fear was playing a major role in my life. I found myself not being able to sleep, waking up at night feeling desperate and stressed out.
Have you ever felt this way?
I don't like to admit it, but, fear makes me feel weak. And who wants to feel weak? Not me, that's for sure! Yet, many times I feel trapped by fear, and therefore trapped by feelings of failure and weakness. When I feel this way, I find myself wanting to retreat away from others towards some familiar place where there is no risk.
But where there is no risk, there is also little gain. And so not risking is not an option because more than I fear weakness, I fear not risking.
