Trust me when I say... I'm scared to try new things. Especially when it's something I'm passionate about.

I have anxiety (rapid thinking in particular), and I can't tell you the amount of times I didn't do something because I was afraid. I was afraid of failing, or other people not liking it, or it not working out. What I do know though is that I would be so much farther with achieving my goals if I did the things I was scared to do.

Being scared to take the first step is normal. How you handle it is what matters.

Taking the first step towards anything is scary. It's SCARY. What if goes wrong? What if people don't like it? What if.. what if... I think we're asking ourselves the wrong question. What happens if I never start? We know the answer to that. Nothing changes. We don't move forward in our lives or grow the way we really want to.

I'm not perfect. I always get scared to take the first step. But my fear of doing nothing and getting nowhere is even stronger. Years had gone by before I started this YouTube channel. I wish I started it sooner.... But if I can get over my fear of taking my first step, you can to. I truly believe that after you watch this, not only will it show you, you aren't alone, but it will give you that small push you need to start.
