Life Musings: Fear
This Tuesday, I sat down at my desk feeling trapped and a little depressed. This feeling lead me to randomly apply to grad school that same day. One of my greatest fears is not reaching my full potential and forever working a dead end job that sucks my soul of its creativity. Even though I have been feeling completely uncomfortable with my current position in life for a while, I did not act. More so I could not act because I was afraid. I was afraid of failure. Afraid of the unknown. Afraid of pretty much any disastrous scenario I could think of (and trust I have a wild imagination lol).
In all honesty, I am still afraid but I cannot keep myself back any longer. If I am the key to my own happiness then I have have to take a step out of my comfort zone and get sh*t done. I have no clue where I will end up in life but I do know that I will continue to better myself each year.
