I have been thinking about how much I have changed over the past year. There are things I wouldn't have done a few years ago. Here are a few examples: going on wild roller coasters, walking up to someone and starting a coversation, public speaking, and jumping into a 9 feet pool. I have finally learned to face my fears and do things I am afraid of. By doing all this, I feel so much more confident and a happier person. I found a couple qoutes I really like and wanted to share:
" Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear." - Ambrose Redmoon
" You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ' I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do."
- Eleanor Roosevelt
" The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one."
- Elbert Hubbard
Facing fears can be really hard but well worth it!!!
