Silently Wondering - Jim Rohn

"The worst thing one can do is not to try, to know what one wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent wondering if something could have materialized - never knowing."~Jim Rohn

How many ideas have you had that you never went after for "some reason???"

Everyday we get great ideas and then we talk ourselves out of doing them because of "some reason."

The 'some reason' is fear. Fear of failure, fear of success, fear of change, fear of loss, fear of gain, fear of what other people will think...fear, fear fear. Why do we allow fear to control our lives? I wish I knew, but we sure let those fears dictate our lives.

We've all heard the acronym for FEAR: False, Evidence, Appearing, Real. But to us, we allow it to become real just by allowing it to cloud our mind. What do you do when you are confronted by those fears?

Think about all those ideas that were never pursued. The next time you get one of those ideas, don't allow 'SOME REASON' or FEAR dictate how you will proceed. Take the chance, break through the fear, find out so that you won't have to wonder for the rest of your life.

"The worst thing one can do is not to try, to know what one wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent wondering if something could have materialized - never knowing."
