I have mentioned before that my fears and regrets can control my every thought. I can replay every mistake I have ever made in slow motion. Or even play out every scenario that could happen dependant on a decision I could or could not soon be making.
I try so hard to really captivate those thoughts and not allow them to take control of my thought process. I really want to not allow my fears to control my life.
Instead, I want to strive for my passion to control my life. The desire to be a motivational speaker, victim advocate, and life story writer. I want those passions to be the captain of my destiny.
I truly believe that if your passions are bigger than your fears you will not have anything to worry about. You will have less chance of doubting the decisions you make. You will have less chance of second guessing what you are about to do.
I shared a few days ago about 20 seconds of courage and how I talked to the HR President about the desire to do an event with the company for Sexual Trauma Awareness Month. I truly believe that 20 seconds of courage that catapulted me forward to basically run up to the company president and let him know how I felt about Sexual Trauma Awareness Month came from the passion I have for Sexual Trauma Awareness and those healing from it.
The passion I have is what motivates me sometimes. I can be so sluggish about going to work, but I know that one day done at work is one day closer to fulfilling my dreams. And that is enough for me to get myself up, dressed and towards another day at work.
So if you feel like you are having a hard time getting motivated to get through a day, dig down deep in your soul for that passion you have for that thing you want in your life. Allow that to be the fire in your belly to get you through another day.
Take Care. Much Love
