“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.”—  Anaïs Nin

This quote speaks to how important it is to do the things we think we are destined to do. When we live our lives from the InsideOut, we are in touch with what we want to do, what we believe we are here to do, and what we have to offer others. Sometimes doing what we know we are destined to do is scary.

Do we let that stop us? Not when we are operating from the InsideOut! We feel the fear and meet our destiny anyway. It is too important for us to be the best and do the things we were meant to do to allow fear to stop us.

What do you think you will regret more? Attempting to make your dreams a reality or playing it safe risking nothing? I know for me, I knew I would regret it if I didn’t at least try to have my own business, write my books, and speak to people about how to change their lives for the better. I believe strongly that this is what I am destined to do. Not doing it would have been cheating myself as well as any people I have influenced along the way.

Is there something you are holding back on? Something you know you are supposed to do but you are afraid? This is normal. Allowing the fear to stop you will not only create a life of mediocrity for you, but it will cheat all those you are destined to influence. Follow your dreams, be afraid but don’t let that stop you.
