Failure or Fear

For much of my life, I've let fear ruled my life. I was not really living it and I fear trying things for fear that I'd fail. However, it led me to become a dormant person, perpetually in hibernation. Events happened last year that caused me to slowly break out of my shell. I'm happy. I'm trying things out and I am actually excited about my life!

A Different Kind of Work

I think to do the work, is to believe and move towards. For example, if you desire to be in Paris, the minimum thing that you need to do, would be to buy a plane or train ticket to Paris. If you just keep talking about it and not moving to get on whatever mode of transportation that can get you there, you'll go nowhere and it'll always remain as a desire and nothing else.

For me, I would like blogging to be part of my life, so I'm doing what I consider to be a minimum of posting a quote every week. I'm not where I want to be, but I'm definitely moving towards it. 

Happy Wednesday!

Be Bold!

Today's quote.

I guess I'm kind of a safe person. I do not take unnecessary risks and I am not very adventurous.

This quote speaks to me. There could be better things out there for me. But unless I am willing to leave the shore I'm on, I'll never get to that batter place.

I say to myself today, be bold! Be fearless!

I Love Quotes!

These are some quotes from a book I read earlier this year. It's a good book and it is available in the library - Uncover Your Potential by Myles Munroe.

Quotes

Today, I'd like to share some quotes that spoke to me.  

I have a problem with hoarding craft items. I have 2 sets of watercolors - one from Pelikan and one from Artist's Loft. I also have 2 big books of Mix Media Paper. Seeing this quote reminded me to use my stash and continue doing what I've always wanted.  

There is no perfect time or perfect place to start doing what I want to do. Fear played a big part, stopping me in my tracks. I fear that my supplies will run out and I would not be able to get my hands on new ones of equal quality. I fear that what I do would not turn out to be how I want them to. Some of you may get what I mean.

I've decided to stop over-analyzing or obsessing over everything, and just start doing. Come what may.

Comparison is the thief of joy. It is true. Never compare ourselves with what others are doing. We are each unique with our abilities and it is time to live life as ourselves, and stop trying to live everyone else's.

So that's all I want to say today. Thank you for reading!
