Don’t let fear hinder you from pursing your passion. It’s not about getting rid of fear, it’s about accepting it and doing whatever you’re scared to do anyways. That’s what builds courage. I got that statement from a coaching video fyi.

Take me for example. This is my fourth blog, not including Blurty, iykyk. When I started six years ago I was a bit reserved about sharing the site. Even hesitant at making an Instagram account for it. Doubt filled the entirety of my being, but I reminded myself everything begins with baby steps. It’s about progress, accretion, which starts with consistency. So I kept writing. Never in a million years thinking it’d be this disruptive, historical thing. Where everyone who’s anyone reads my words. The upper echelons of society discussing what I’ve posted and more. None of that would’ve happened if my passion didn’t burn brighter than my fear.

Progress Not Perfection

“…changes that seem small and unimportant at first will compound into remarkable results if you’re willing to stick to them for years. We all deal with setbacks but in the long run, the quality of our lives often depends on the quality of our habits.”

Baby steps baby. Any amount of progress is progress, don’t add stress by beating yourself up for not being instantly good, or successful. Not only does it drain the fun from attaining your goals, it paralyzes you from trying, putting you in a why bother mood. Guess what, bother, because 1% everyday is all you need. Plus when you get there you’ll be so proud. Just like when I finally nailed Crow’s Pose, I literally thought it was never gonna happen for me. Two years of trying almost everyday and I did it. Gobsmacked when my legs Houdini’ed off my mat, not even joking, when it happened it took me 30 seconds to process.

Worth every fall. What do you want to get good at? What was your last Crow’s Pose moment (something you failed out then achieved)?Via: Adventuring_Into_Lettering & Atomic Habits
