Limitless Living Blog #67 - Have to Start

Have to Start

You have to start somewhere. In full transparency, I have let fear hold me back from my purpose, passions, and goals many times. My wife had to have a conversation with me and remind me to just start. Start somewhere. I was so afraid to mess up and fail, I didn't even attempt. That's the ultimate fail. My name is Scotty and welcome to the 67th blog post here on the Limitless Living Blog. Thanks for tuning in.

People probably think I'm crazy for starting this brand and blog. If I listened to them or my doubts, I wouldn't be writing my 67th blog post. I'm nowhere close to where I want to be, but I am closer than I was a year ago. Fear holds people back, including myself. In more ways than we know. I kept being fearful I would fail, not realizing I could be further than I was without starting at all. If we let that fear consume us, and it will, we will be forever stuck. The saying is so true: “one day or day one.” I saw that advertised at a gym, and thought it was cheesy. Now that I'm thinking about it, it’s very true. If we never start, we are going to look back at missed opportunities. You also need people to be blunt and honest with you, telling you the truth. “You’re letting fear hold you back.”  “Don’t let this opportunity slip away.” Sentences like this from ones we love and respect should wake us up and make us realize we are.
