When Things Are Going Terrifyingly Good.

When things are looking good you shouldn’t worry. It’s just your hard work paying off. When you are struggling and your hard work starts paying off it can terrifying.

When you struggle you can start falling in love with the struggle. You start looking at life like that’s the way life is supposed to be. You get comfortable with life being difficult.

You can get so comfortable that when you get the life you have worked so hard for it’s scary. When you plan your whole life to be a career man. When you look at the man you’ve become it might make your leg shake. You got what you wanted now you have to accept it all; good,bad, and ugly.

When I made the decision to be a blogger I was confident. I thought I could do it, I can write. Now, that more than a year has passed it’s a nerve wrecking. Making sure to maintain a consistent flow of articles is worrisome.

Things are going great with my blog and I couldn’t be more scared. The pressure of maintaining quality as well as being consistent. Not only that but being known for be a blogger.

It’s the responsibility of maintaining the lifestyle that comes with your dream; will scare you. You have to keep up and not drop the ball. You have to work every day to say you are working. That a lot of pressure to be what you always wanted to be.

But, take a moment to congratulate yourself. It may not be time to celebrate but at least you can face your fear and say “I am what I say I am.” With that affirmation, you are acknowledging that you’ve become what you always wanted to be.

If you made it you can own it. Claim that the fact is you’ve worked to be what you are. There is nothing wrong with reaping the benefits of being the man. You put that labor and turned it into a life for yourself. That in itself is enough to be proud of.

Yeah, sure someone can steal your thunder. Someone can derail your life and leave you penniless. That kind of loss isn’t likely. Your more likely to continue on your journey of success then lose it all. Isn’t that the concern of success, losing it all.

That fear keeps you motivated to give it your all. To get where you are at now you had to give it a hundred 💯. Now that you made something you have to keep giving it a hundred 💯. If not, your fears will become reality 💯.

Work hard and face your fears of success. If you think you are you will become. Working hard isn’t enough you have to work confidently.  Without fear that you fall back into the struggle that you once loved.
