It exciting to begin a New Year with a new word. This year I choose fearless. I'm a little more nervous about this word than previous ones because I'm anticipating it will be a challenging one. I might just have to grow and overcome some things.
Previous words for me have been:
2012: Health
2013: Open
2014: Evolve
All have been influential in my life.
I started thinking about fearless around October. I can't say which fear I was dealing with at the time, but I vaguely recall thinking it would be nice to live with less fear on a day to day basis.
I would like to look at how I approach day to day life and whether I don't certain things because I fear them or because they truly aren't meaningful for me. Sometimes maybe it is both, other times it might be one or the other.
I can also physically feel fear when if starts to take over. I want to understand the fear and how I can work my way thought it instead of running away from it. I want to tame the fear beast, or at least offer it a few cookies so I can walk through life with less of it.
I am excited and nervous about the word. I want to walk more fearlessly through my life, to share my ideas, my dreams, and my thoughts.
"I feel myself becoming the fearless person I have dreamt of being. Have I arrived? No. But I'm constantly evolving challenging myself to be unafraid of making mistakes." - Janelle Monae
It's time to explore that side of me that desires to be a little more fearless.
