“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?…” -A Return to Love – Marianne Williamson
I use to think, what could be more fearful than being inadequate… A friend told me that they wanted to be an actor but decided not to, because they didn’t think that they could handle the paparazzi. I write under a pseudonym with an advatar image because I have a dialog in my head saying, who are you that thinks you can do this – write, travel, and be successful. My friend stopped moving forward, so unless she changes her mindset, she will never be an actor. Her fear of success stopped her before she ever got started. I have gotten past my feeling of inadequacy and decided to move forward anyway. Because, why not me? Why not my friend? Why can’t we live our dream? We have just as many hours in the day as anyone else. We have the same opportunities. It’s our choice – whats yours? What does your perfect life look like?
Just a thought…
Love, Goldi
Creating a perfect life in a perfect world…
