The answer, I believe, is ourselves… I spend half my energy trying to guess what others might think if I do or say a certain thing, if a pick a certain outfit or read a certain book… The funny thing is I'm used to thinking about myself as an independent woman who takes life as it comes and doesn’t worry about society and what others might think, yet I'm always questioning myself… I only let my friends get to know half of me because I am not sure how they would respond to the other half… I keep a lot to myself because I am afraid I will be judged, I don’t share my plans because I am afraid someone will crush them…
The worst part is I let them; whenever I share an idea with someone, and that someone disagrees, I try to stick to my point of view and defend it to the core, but the truth is when I’m alone at night, I start losing faith in my original idea and slowly take in the other persons point of view…
The question now becomes why do I do this?
The answer, I do it out of fear… fear of failure... I know life is not perfect and all successful people have failed quite a couple of times… but some people fail trying to do something they want to do, something they are sure of and even after failing they learn something and try again… But since I have no clue about what I want to do, it’s hard to start doing something… So the truth is no one is stopping me from doing anything... I just need to brake free from my own insecurities and take a risk...
That is exactly why I started this blog... I want to take that risk and follow my dreams but I find myself without any specific dreams, so decided to look for inspiration in unexpected places, like here, so I ask you ¿What is your main source of inspiration?
