Get Out Of The Box!

One of the main reasons why we do not get out of our boxes is because of FEAR. The fear of failure practically dictates to us what we will and will not do. Fear keeps us at times from being all that we can be and trying new things. There is so much that God has equipped us with but we fail to do them and thus staying in our comfort zone in our own little boxes. Fear defined is a verb meaning to be afraid or apprehensive. Now I know we all are apprehensive about some things. Some times that is good and a lot of times that keeps us for going out and challenging ourselves and being the best that we can be. Why are you afraid to try new things? Have you failed at something before, have the wrong mindset and telling yourself you can't do it, have people around you telling you you can't do it. There are a number of things. Now I have met some really nice mommy bloggers and gotten to know some really nice people and gotten a lot of tips from a lot of mommy bloggers out there who have gotten out of their boxes and are making a difference. Be it in reviewing, giving info about having babies, or any number of things. They are not saying starting out has been an easy ride but they stuck with it and the outcome has been great. I can tell you starting your own business or trying something new will definitely get you out of your box and having you try different things you never thought you could do like approach strangers and just strike up general conversation. I was so in my own world at one point and now since I have been home with my children for 2 years I appreciate the the time I get to spend with them and the time I get to go out and meet mommies that are just like myself. I can tell you why I was so afraid. FAILURE. It is real. This has kept me from doing so many different things. I have let years go by saying I can't do that and knowing I had a purpose and wondering what that was. The American dream has been dictated saying go to school, get an education, get a job, by a house, have a few kids and that's it. Well what about the in between like do something you love even though it might not pay you the big bucks or how about working for yourself if you are going to work 10 to 15 hours a day. These days and ages not even the government is secure. Look at the possible closures. Another thing that almost had me quit was the people around me. The people closet to you like family and friends your inner circle who you think should support you and don't. Now this is not always the case and some people have support and are supportive but I have found for myself that the people who don't even know you are the ones that support you the most. I have learned to not let things affect me so deeply any more and keep on pressing. Some people subconsciously want you to fail, or consciously at times want you to fail because you are out pursuing your goals and that was something that they never did. Don't let those people keep you down. Even when it looks impossible it is very much possible. So I say to you what is it that you have been wanting to do. Write a book, start a business, go back to school, learn a foreign language, Go for it. Get out of your box because you have so much to offer. Use the small setbacks and the negativity to keep you going. STOP BY AND VISIT MY WEBSITE: www.5linx.net/TuckerTeam
