Stare your fears in the face

There is nothing more dangerous than avoiding your biggest fears in life. What if our fears weren't just insecurities and failures, but they were our biggest dreams and ambitions coming alive. Take a moment to ask yourself what would be your biggest dream and goal in life. What you do if you knew for a fact that you would not fail? Would you risk everything to chase it? If this dream of yours does not make you uncomfortable or break the barrier of what you are currently comfortable with, then you are not dreaming BIG ENOUGH! Dream big dreams - there is no point in aiming for 5th place, an average salary, or just a convenient relationship, because that is exactly what you will end up with in life.

I like to think of this concept as a game of darts: if you generally aim for the wall, you will hit the wall, and MIGHT hit the dartboard. If you focus all of your energy on to the center of the board and have a clear intention of succeeding, your odds of hitting a bulls-eye are much higher. There is a direct correlation to this and our dreams in life. Do you want to hit the wall and hope that one day you will hit a bulls-eye, or do you want to put all of your energy into succeeding and increasing your percentage of a bulls-eye RIGHT NOW ​? You might not hit the target every single time, but a miss and failure can be a perfect opportunity to learn and improve your shot for next time.

You must stare your biggest fears in the face RIGHT NOW, because your dreams and values will not be the same 5 years from now; you might live the rest of your days hoping for success and moving on from dream-to-dream without ever hitting a single target. Look at what your biggest dream is 5 years from now, decide to stare it in the face TODAY, and throw the dart.
