My Biggest Fear

Woah, pretty dramatic title. Must be an important post. I’d say it is a pretty defining question. Fears shape your decisions and choices.

Woah, pretty dramatic title. Must be an important post. I’d say it is a pretty defining question. Fears shape your decisions and choices.

So what is my biggest fear?

That I am wasting my time.

That all of my hard-work, $$$, and time could be better spent elsewhere, doing something else.

I think that everyone runs into this predicament:

Are we best using the resources at our disposable? Do we get the most (fun, money, whatever) out of our expenditures.

It’s impossible to tell for certain. Rather, we go through this struggle of balancing the optimal decisions. But even then, it is difficult to tell if you are going down the right path.

So how are you expected to overcome this fear? The paradox is tricky.

The most important step that I must take moving forward is to stop worrying about things that happened in the past. Rather, I should focus on winning every single day.

Instead of retroactively overanalyzing the opportunity costs of a decision, I need to move forward, quickly. Overtime, I will become more confident in my decisions and stop looking back for good.

That is how I plan to escape my fear…How will you escape yours?


Thanks for reading! Would really appreciate a share 🙂
