“Fear stifles our thinking and actions. It creates indecisiveness that results in stagnation. I have known talented people who procrastinate indefinitely rather than risk failure. Lost opportunities cause erosion of confidence, and the downward spiral begins,”—Charles Stanley.
One of the greatest weapons against mediocrity is boldness—ability to stand up against what you feel is below the standard you have set for yourself. Everyone has a goal, but not everyone will reach it regardless of how we work towards it sometimes. However, everyone has the real courage to battle fear if only we can accept the fact that it only exists in our imagination.
Fear is the reason many people procrastinate indefinitely—they would rather risk failure than throwing their hart in the ring to take a risk and fail. Don’t let the next opportunity knocking at your door elude you because it might erode your confidence, which could initiate a downward spiral.
