This may be a bold statement, but we’re going there and we’re ripping the band-aid off real quick: Nothing is holding you back more than your own self doubt.
Is there something that you have been dreaming of doing? Something that has always held your attention from a distance but you’ve been too scared to try it or too worried about what other people would think of you if you just went for it? That’s self doubt holding you down.
Do you have thoughts of doing something bigger? Or trying something that sounds hard but haven’t because you’re afraid of failure? That’s self doubt holding you down.
Do you know deep down that you need to change something about your life, be it for your health, wellness or literal safety? But you have stayed right were you are and been paralyzed by the overwhelming first step… That’s self doubt holding you down.
Has there ever been a time in your life where doubting yourself and second guessing yourself has ever benefited you? Chances are, probably not. So many people have started this new year with wonderful intentions and maybe have even started working towards those new goals but as soon as it started getting difficult; took a step back. I am asking you to shine that light on the things that are hard in life and work through it, because the things that take effort are usually the most rewarding things in life.
What is it that you want to do with your time?
- Start that fitness journey?
- Work on your mental health?
- Launch a new business?
- Begin a hobby or pick an old one back up?
- Go to school?
- Change jobs?
- Move?
- Travel?
Take that first step, yes, just start. I doubt very much that you will ever regret it. You have the choice to make life what you want it to be and that is one of the most beautiful things to take advantage of. You can wake up every single morning and know that you have the power to shape your day into what you want it to be. By simply deciding that you want to do more or be more you open your eyes to so many possibilities and opportunities.
What to do when you’re really stuck
Favorite thing to do here is to reach out to a trusted friend or family member and talk it out. Sometimes you can get so worked into a corner in your own head that you don’t feel like you have any other options. But the truth is you do, and getting out of your own way can open so many doors for you. Taking that little micro step of just talking to someone about what you have in mind and putting it out there into the universe can give you the confidence to go for it. Because likely you thought someone would judge you for it, but all the people who love you want to do is support you. That support from someone you trust can change your whole perspective and give you that boost to do it.
What is something that you thought you’d never be able to do but you started and how did it make you feel?
