I’ve heard the saying that procrastination is fear. Well maybe it is; maybe it’s a combination of things. Whatever it comes from also comes out of insecurities.
I have also fallen so many times I am scared to fail. I have been lacking the confidence. Yes, I have overcome so many road blocks in my life. Considering my past I am doing well, but I do not want to settle for a life lived with complacency. I believe that we are here in life to learn lessons and to continue to become better versions of ourselves.
With that being said, currently I am working on my insecurities. I procrastinate out of fear. Partly has to deal with writing blogs in general. I know blogs are required for the world race participants and it is a growing process. To be honest it’s hard to get real and show others my dirt, but I’m not going to try and pretend like I am some super Christian either. I want my blogs to not only help me grow but I hope to reach out to the simple human beings that we all are. Universality is a powerful tool. We all have our struggles. If we get over our insecurities and be vulnerable with each other we then have the power to heal.
I see so many people getting out of church because of judgment and the forever famous “hypocrites” How awesome would it be if we let fear, shame, and judgment go and love one another through our brokenness. What if we actually became real with people? God can not heal us if we come to Him as “fake”. So I challenge you readers to start being real and open just as I will continue to be showing on my blogs as I prepare my heart and mind to go on the World Race!. Find a mentor/friend to be open with.
So my goals for myself this week and every week is to not be a procrastinator and not let fear get in the way of my goals and healing. I promise to start writing more on my blogs. I have already started to journal again and have many great blog topics to come!
