What is Fear?
Fear is mostly known as the unpleasant emotion that is brought on by beliefs of danger or terrible outcomes. That being said, fear is an emotion that we deal with on a daily basis. It comes in many forms whether you view it as the little voice in your head or that sinking feeling in your stomach. You usually encounter it when you feel like you're taking a risk or stepping outside of your personal limits.
Unfortunately, the world is not simple. It's not the perfect place that we dreamed of as children. Instead, it's a place full of doubts and destruction where we are thrown into the middle of its chaos. However, by letting fear take charge in our lives we are making it worse for ourselves. We don't need to let fear dictate how we feel because in doing so we are the sole cause of unnecessary stress and emotional outbreaks. I won't say it's a simple thing to get over because in reality it's like you are walking on a path and a giant wall has appeared out of nowhere with no sign of getting across it. This is usually the point in which we allow fear to take over and rule us, but it's time for us to realize we are the ones with the upper hand.
We have the potential to do anything, we are our own person and we are powerful with whatever we set our minds to. We can't let fear be the thing that keeps us from where we want to go in life and who we want to become because then we our shorting ourselves from our deepest desires and dreams. In the end, letting fear take over is our one choice. We can let it consume us or we can stand tall and destroy the shackles of fear and break free. In the end, we can't be afraid to want what we want or to crave happiness and go after what keeps us back from the things we love.
So now we must decide, does fear win? Or is it time to fight back and take what is rightfully ours? We must forget all negativity of opinions and those that suck all the positive energy away. This is your time, your life and it's all up for grabs. Everyone deserves to be happy and go after what they want in life. Nothing is simple, but what is the fun if something wasn't worth a fight. Just remember, you are what controls your life, nothing can stop you from what you truly want, especially a little thing called fear. So now is the time. Step up to the ring and kiss fear goodbye. You don't need it anymore because you are a strong individual who can do anything you set your mind to. Live in the moment and embrace life for what it truly is: which is beautiful. Let yourself be free from all the worries and unknowns because you now have nothing left to fear.
