It's not too late to get off the fence if there are things you have wanted to do or say but have held back or played small. Do it.
Say no to fear, hesitation, and indecision and say yes to your life.
In the past, I was sometimes afraid to challenge myself but I find as I get older I am getting braver. I started my Doctorate last year and the thought of defending next spring is terrifying, but I'm going to do it! I've prepared a book proposal to submit to a publisher for consideration; right now I've sent it off to a critical friend for review. And, so far, I've submitted two articles for publication, and I've also applied to present at three upcoming conferences. For some people, submitting articles or applications might not be an act of bravery but the fear of rejection is kind of scary. Promoting my writing and my blog on social media makes me feel uncomfortable, like I'm saying "Look at me!" However, pushing past these fears opens up opportunities for exciting experiences, so my resolution this year is to continue to push myself. I can't wait to see what opportunities this year will bring!
