JUST DO

                                                               JUST DO IT

              RALPH WALDO EMERSON OFFERED SOME SIMPLE ADVICE, WHICH, IF FOLLOWED, CAN TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE. HE SAID, DO THE THING YOU FEAR AND THE DEATH OF FEAR IS CERTAIN, I KNOW THIS ADVICE MAKES GOOD SENSE, BUT SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST TOO AFRAID THIS ADVICE TO ACT. REMEMBER MY PRIOR WORDS ABOUT THE STEEP PRICE YOU PAY WHEN YOU LET YOUR FEARS DOMINATE YOU.

             IN THE END, RUNNING AWAY FROM YOUR FEAR IS A LOSING STRAGETY. IT WILL ONLY BRING YOU FRUSTRATION AND UNHAPPINESS. I CAN TELL YOU THAT FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.

            THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH HAVING SOME FEARS. SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE HAVE FEARS. THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE TAKE ACTION AND MOVE FORWARD DESPITE BEING AFRAID. IT'S NOT ALWAYS EASY, I'LL GRANT THAT. BUT YOU'LL ALWAYS FEEL BETTER ABOUT YOURSELF WHEN YOU FACE YOUR FEARS.

             IN THE LAST 20 YEARS OF SO, I'VE HAD THE PRICILEGE OF TRAVELLING THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES AND ABROAD ..... AND OF SPEAKING WITH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE. DURING ALL THE TIME, I HAVEN'T MET ONE PERSON WHO CONFRRONTED HIS FEARS.... TOOK ACTION..... AND LATER REGRETTED IT. NOT A SINGLE ONE! BUT I'VE MET MANY PEOPLE WHO TELL ME HOW MUCH THEY REGRET BACKING AWAY FORM THEIR FEARS--- AND LETTING THEIR DREAMS DIE..

               SO, STRETCH YOURSELF. CONFRONT YOUR FEARS AND BE WILLING TO EXPAND YOUR FONFORT ZONE. THE COURAGE MUSCLE CAN BE DEVELOPED JUST LIKE ANY OTHER MUSCLE--- WITH EXERCISE. AND WHEN YOU DO AN ACTIVITY OUSTSIDE YOUR CONFORT ZONE A FEW TIMES, YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS?  THE SAME ACTIVITY BECOMES PART OF YOUR CONFORT ZONE!.

                  THER'S ANOTHER BONUS WHEN YOU'RE WILLING TO EXPANT YOUR COMFORT ZONE. WHEN YOU PUSH THROUGH FEAR AND TAKE ACTION IN SOME AREAS OF YOUR LIFE, YOU'LL DEVELOP CONFIDENCE IN OTHER AREAS, AS WELL. IT'S TRUE! AS I BECAME MORE CONFORTABLE AS A SPEAKER, I ALSO BECAME A BETTER SALESMAN... A BETTER BUSINESSMAN.... A BETTER LISTENER..... THE LIST GOES ON AND ON....

                      CONFRONT YOUR FEARS..... AND YOU'RE ON THE WAY TO DEVELOPING YOUR POTENTIAL AND LEADING THE EXCITING, FULFILLING LIFE YOU DESERVE . IT'S A DESISION YOU'LL NEVER REGRET!
