Isn’t it exciting to think about trying something new? The anticipation, the unknown, and the adventure are all part of the excitement!
It’s natural to feel stuck in a rut and fearful of stepping out of our comfort zones. But remember, if we let fear hold us back, we stop growing. Embracing change is the key to personal growth and development.
It’s completely normal to feel a bit scared when trying something new. In fact, it’s a sign that you’re stepping out of your comfort zone.
Remember, it’s okay to be scared-you have to do it anyway.
I recently started focusing on flexibility, stretching and yoga, as I get older. I had no idea what I was doing when I started, and I probably looked ridiculous, but after a few months, I was improving and getting stronger with every workout. You won’t know what the outcome will be unless you try.
We talk ourselves out of so many new experiences and adventures because of the fear of the unknown, and we miss out on many opportunities. Not trying something new limits your chances of changing your present situation.
We are naturally fearful when we start something new and unfamiliar. Still, we must decide to push through the fear and keep going forward.
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7
You have to be willing to put yourself out there, fail, get back up, try one more time, and learn from your mistakes.
“For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again.”
Proverbs 24:16
Failure is part of the process; to succeed at anything, you must understand that failure is part of success.
You have to be WILLING… to try something new.
Remember:
“Life shrinks and expands in proportion to one’s courage.”
Anais Nin
What have you always wanted to do that you’ve been too scared to try?
If you dare to begin your journey, you’ll have what it takes to succeed, but you’ll only know what you can or can’t do if you try.
Letting go of the familiar and embracing change is a decision only you can make. But remember, it’s a decision that can inspire and motivate you to new heights.
So, I challenge you to take a step today. Go ahead…
Try something new!
You have that kind of courage in you!
