Breaking Through Blocks: Choosing to Move Forward in the Face of Fear

January 8, 2020

Feral. Wild. Untamed.

I’m just over here trying to break through blocks and create new paths.

Change is on the horizon, and with change comes fear. If I’ve learned anything from this artistic process, it’s that if you’re not scared, you haven’t even begun to scratch the surface. You’re not going deep enough.

Chose to take a step forward each day and make it in the opposite direction of the comparison train. Measurable actions come in all different sizes, but as long as you’re pushing yourself and moving forward, you’re headed in the right direction.

Feel the fear.

Sit with it.

Let it pass through you.

And then take action.

This is me making my move forward and working through my fear. Has something been holding you back? Let’s support each other and discuss in the comments below!
