If They Only Knew My Life Story
If they only knew my life story they’d realize why I describe myself as fearless. It takes a person who can just sit back and watch their life crumble down on them and build it back up on their own and even bigger and better to have the type of heart that I have. At a young age I learned that either its life or death just like if you were playing Russian roulette. After my dad passed I felt that life would never get any better for me. My life would always be stuck in in the same moment kind of like I was going through déjà vu for years on at a time wondering if fate would be in my favor.

I was scared move forward in life because if I did and it didn’t work I knew that it would only shoot me down and I’d feel like I failed myself once again.

    From my point of view, I say do whatever you think is the best advice for yourself. I risked my life doing something for myself that I’ve never thought I would imagine. If you have a desire or dream for something you’ve never thought you would have and you want to chase it, don’t be foolish and not. I love to read and write and if I had never chased my dream, I wouldn’t be where I am right now. So if I could do it, so could you. Everyone has a certain obstacle in their life and somehow managed to get through it, so what is your excuse?…

It is our fear of failing or looking foolish in front of others that keeps us from being who we want to be.…

    Fear exists in everyone. No one lives without fear. Being fearless is not required to be courageous, one has to overcome fears in order to possess courage. Risks are involved when overcoming fears and going against the norm. Risks come in different types, risking life, risking reputations, risking limb. The greatest risk “is not taking any risk” (Mark Zuckerberg). A person must have courage to endure each particular risk. A person who is not courageous enough to take risks will “accomplish nothing in life” (Muhammad Ali). Courage happens anytime, anywhere, and any day. Courage is experienced by all; no matter how young, old, wise, or foolish. The effect of courage may not be positive, however, the outcome is remembered. The rewards have the potential to be great, but so do the…

    It was hard feeling like something was holding me back. I have been lucky enough to travel through all my life, I had stayed long periods of time away from my family, I was one of the most academically successful students in my school, and I could speak English a lot better than almost anyone I knew back home. So why was I not leaving when my parents were also giving me options to do so? I just wasn’t sure about which path I should take in order to achieve my dreams. Most people I know would go to universities to figure out what they wanted to do in life and I knew exactly what I wanted. But I thought that it’s impossible to teach someone how to be a successful artist. As I felt this way, I was second guessing myself on whether or not it was worth the trouble to study for years abroad and still have to find a way to launch my career. All of these uncertainties have passed as I realized even when I was doubting my decisions I was only wasting my time and confusing myself. I wasn’t going to wait for a miracle to happen so that I could become a greatly acknowledged…

    I am not afraid of anything because I know that the Lord Jesus Christ is with me. There isn’t anything God can’t do which means because I have him in me and with me I too can do all things. I know that, I believe that, and I have accepted that grace from him so I am capable of anything because where I am weak I can pray to God and he will lead me through. When there are things that need to be done and I know I can’t do it by myself I pray to God and wait on him to show me how and he does. God has never failed me and I know he will never leave me so I’m never intimidated to do things beyond man’s belief because where Man says I can’t the Lord shows me We can and that’s why I have mighty faith because I know what my God is capable of. The Lord is my strength he is like a muscle that I’m able to flex and things become just. if I ever feel hopeless I think about all that God has brought me thru and that reassures me that there will be nothing that I will ever have to challenge alone for he will continue to be with me and together we will overcome all future obstacles . A lot of people don’t believe in themselves because they don’t believe in or have faith in God I feel if you believe in God then you should know that you’re capable of anything because he said he will never leave nor forsake you all you have to do is call on him and he’s there so the next time you feel incapable of something pray and ask God for guidance and watch him work. Thank…
