What fear is standing between you and your dreams?

“Aerodynamics experts can prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that the bumble bee’s small wings and bulbous body render it incapable of flying. Once launched into the air, any creature so configured will simply crash to the ground and die. The bee, however, is fearless – so it flies anyway.”

All too often, the thing that holds us back the most when moving towards fulfilling our dreams is fear: fear of failure, of success, of ridicule, of worth.  The above quote is taken from a column by Clayton Makepeace.  The post is one of the most inspiring I have come across in quite some time.

Instead of paraphrasing what he says, I felt it in your best interest to direct you to the column itself so you could read it in its entirety.  It includes a video that absolutely must be watched.  If after watching the video and reading his uplifting words you do not see how small your fears are and how readily possible it is for you to achieve your dreams, as Clayton puts it, “better take your pulse – because whether you know it or not, you have passed away.”

After you’ve read the column – and dried your eyes ;) – come back and post a comment or two.  I love to hear what you think.
