The courage to be me

 Woah, WOW, is what I feel right now. Everyday is a new experience in life for everyone. Even if it is the same thing we do every single day, there will be a difference in each day, maybe subtle or strong, but it is there.


We had an exciting one week at work - 

sports week - Monday to Saturday

whole group energy

physical activity

sun

sweat

fear of rain

warm up dance/movements

Friday - whole day fun

Saturday - cross valley run of 5km, events, obstacle race, muddy puddle jump

class after work


Though it was a packed one, we did not complain in spite of the extreme exhaustion.


The reason for this post - building confidence in myself. I have been told to do things as if no one is watching by many as I am very self conscious. My lack of confidence shows up in various forms everywhere. 

I often seek company to do everything even though I have done many things on my own and alone. It is not about doing many things, but even after doing things alone, I have not been confident enough to do it again!

The fears and doubts show on my face. I am wondering about the reason. One major fear is about others judging me. I give a lot of importance to others! 

Even though I have a crazy number of fears and doubts, I am doing it. I guess that's the important part - doing it in spite of the fears and doubts.


Ok, this post has been more about working backwards as though I wanted to write about my excitement, I was not sure what I wanted to convey! Now, after typing the above I can say that this post has been about realizing that I have the courage needed to be myself, of course with a lot of help - help at different stages, help from different people, help in subtle ways, obvious ways, directly. 







Thank you


Ending the week with my favourite
