Fear

Coney Island Pier
Coney Island, Brooklyn, NY

It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person,
 "Always do what you are afraid to do." 
Ralph Waldo Emerson 

Everyone has to come to terms with their fears. While fear can be a powerful motivator, it can also be an equal deterrent. We have to make a conscious choice to move forward despite fear.

No one relishes rejection, but you can't experience reward without effort. Life does not provide safety nets, it only provides time and opportunity. I don't know where the journey will take me, but I am compelled to action and to chase my dreams. The clock ticks and time marches on. It will not wait for you nor for me.
