Overcoming fears

I've been pretty busy lately, getting more involved in Uni life. Taken up the role of peer support leader at my University. Yesterday was my first day. It was a pretty daunting and frightening experience for me, as I 've always been a follower most of my life. Yes, I  admit, in my whole entire life, I've always prefered taking up the role as a sheep rather than a sheperd. I've been so busy in my real life, that I'm slightly out of the touch with Ebay. Even when I'm just shopping on ebay, I tend to forget how to use certain features of Ebay. Not a good sign, heh! Maybe, there's so much more important things going on, that I've forgotten, that I'm a aspiring to be ebay entrepreneur like GaryPepperVintage hoho! I think she will certainly be the Australian version of Nastygirl.

Last week, I got accepted in fashion school, but I had to reject the offer :( It was heartbreaking but I just had to finish what I've started before embarking on a new journey .When everyone else assumes that you are the person that they've always thought you were, in a bad way..you just have to go out of your way to prove them wrong.  I don't agree that anyone can assume someone to be whom they thought should be, when the learning process to truly understand someone is like a blackhole,there's always something new to learn.

Here are some quotes about fear,that I personally agree, loved and of which they inspires me.

Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live- Dorothy Thompson

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do. Eleanor Rosevelt

Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity. They seem to be more afraid of life than death

James F Bymes

Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.-Marie Curie

I'm not afraid of storms, for I'm learning how to sail my ship.-Louisa may alcott

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others-Marianne Williamson

Once we get over our fears, we are pretty much invincible aside from the fact that we can't fly like superman, or have a body of steel like batman. We are our own superheroes. Yesterday was the day I feared would come, but now I'm looking forward to the next. This last quote summarizes all my thoughts & feelings.

I am not afraid of tomorrow, for I have seen yesterday and I love today-William Allen white
