Fear – fear is one of the biggest obstacles that hurt you in any field and with any objective. However, fear is also a self-defense mechanism that plays a critical role in human survival. If your survival is not at immediate danger, fear needs to be acknowledged and managed accordingly.
I never thought I would be writing and posting my work publicly – especially as a chronic Youtube viewer and one who loves reading the comment section in just about everything I watch. As much as I enjoy reading public opinion, it is also terrifying as one begins to expose themselves online!
The biggest accomplishment of this blog is overcoming the fear and what-ifs and doing what is true to myself irregardless of what others might say. So congratulations to anyone and everyone who, valuable content or not, have taken the risk to open up and share their thoughts online. With respect to the World Wide Web, this paragraph is designated solely to those whose content is solely negative in nature, of course. Share your thoughts with the world, but don’t be a toxin poisoning other’s minds. The internet is tool, but as most of us are aware, a weapon in the wrong hands. Weapons are bad omens in most cases, in the sense that it is only a matter of time before the designated purpose hurts another in ways that is not self-defense.
Take pride in yourself, but do it humbly and with good intentions and the Universe will have your back! Congratulations to those of you who have the courage to speak up for what is right! There are not enough us!
