If your dreams don't scare you, they aren't big enough.
But it goes past just being scared. There are times when you will be paralyzed in fear. You'll feel the immensity of the dream weighing down on your shoulders. Dreams are dense. They're significantly heavy sometimes. But they also have an incredible lightness about them if you actually give them an opportunity to blossom.
Most people will try and fail at their dream and never try again. But in order to see your dreams through, you have to go after them day after day and keep trying even if you fail. You have to be willing to give up your time, your comfort, and take the constant torment that failure will bring into your life. Dreams will test you in so many ways but they are also our greatest teachers.
When that heavy fear comes in, what can we do?
Do we actually have to do anything?
If you feel that fear and allow it some room to roam around inside your mind and your body for a while, you can actually work with the fear instead of constantly pushing it away. You can learn from it instead of running away from it.
When you begin to understand your fears and listen to what they are trying to tell you, you can learn day in and day out about where your weak spots are and where you need to do some work. More importantly however, you can start to develop a relationship with negative emotions instead of trying to avoid them at all costs.
How incredible would that be - to be well situated with your emotions and to create an unbreakable foundation built on your worst fears and your enormous dreams? You would never run again. In fact, you would stand strong through any storm as you are constructed from something that roots itself thousands of feet deep down into the ground and extends miles into the sky above.
Stop running and start facing what scares you. When you face what scares you, you end up realizing you have a whole lot more power than you ever would have thought.
