I discovered a life lesson in a swimming pool.

I by no means anticipated a easy swim would shift my perspective like this.

I went swimming with two mates as a result of the climate was scorching. I’m not knowledgeable swimmer, however I’m snug within the water.

At first, each of them have been terrified of the deep finish. I used to be the one one keen to go there.

Then one thing fascinating occurred.

One of my mates determined to strive anyway. She admitted she was scared however she didn’t wish to keep caught in a single place. So she began making an attempt to swim

There was no coach & didn’t take any swimming classes however she was keen to be taught.

She tried repeatedly and once more… till she all of the sudden acquired it proper!

By the time we have been leaving, she was swimming from one finish of the pool to the opposite, laughing and excited by what she had simply completed

While my different buddy did the alternative.

She refused to strive. She saved saying “What if I drown?”, “I’m too scared.”

She by no means even made it previous the shallow aspect. And that’s when it hit me.

These are the 2 varieties of individuals in life:
Those who really feel concern and nonetheless strive & those that really feel concern and let it cease them utterly

Fear is regular however letting that concern resolve your limits is a selection.

You can’t develop or attain new ranges if concern retains you caught in the identical spot.

Sometimes, all it takes is the braveness to strive as soon as extra

If this put up resonates with you, take it as a reminder:

You have to be courageous sufficient to maneuver, even in these moments while you’re scared.

What’s one thing concern has been holding you again from recently?
