As the saying goes, “It’s darkest before the dawn.“, Before your major breakthrough, you are going to be tested with challenges, trials and tribulations; you are going to doubt your abilities, and the naysayers will make you doubt yourself more but don’t give in. Success is not a straight path; it takes ten years to succeed overnight. There would be dark, lonely, cold nights on your path to greatness. You have to see the end in your mind, have faith in a higher power directing your steps and keep it moving always. As American author and motivational speaker Jim Rohn often said, “Don’t wish it was easier; wish you were better. Don’t wish for fewer problems; wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenge; wish for more wisdom”.

Fear is an emotion we all have to deal with, and it is a sign of being alive to show fear. We are all scared of one thing or another; most of us let the fear stop us from moving forward, while the high achievers feel the fear and do it anyway. Fear will be a part of you as long as you are living; the moment you stop getting scared of anything, you are dead. Even the most confident people like Barack Obama, Beyonce, Jayz, Oprah Winfrey and all the most admired people in the world battle with a fear of something or the other.
