I have overcome these fears, and keep doing so, by putting my faith in God and trusting that his plan is bigger and better than mine. 

I also just do it. Band-aid style. Rip it off and go for it. Ain’t no time like the present. All of the experiences I’ve had in the last few years have taught me, more than ever, that life is short. Make the choice, the move. Tell them how you feel. Look like an idiot. Dance in the car in traffic. Travel alone. Sing karaoke. Make a fool of yourself. Make mistakes. Be messy on purpose. Show up. Show out. But more than anything, just do it. I do not want to have any regrets when it comes to my life.

Faith > Fear

Bravery > Fear

Living > Fear
