We are living in times, where the fear of unknown has gripped us from all corners due to economic, political, environmental and health reasons.
Today, I want to share a personal story on how I have learnt to deal with the Fear of the Unknown.
Of course, it hits me when an unexpected or unpredictable event suddenly occurs. But, I’ve learnt to go silent and listen to what life is trying to teach me in that moment.
It is this trust in my inner voice that has given me the courage to take leaps of faith and dived headfirst into the depths of uncertainty. In the face if uncertainty, I look for the opportunity to transform, I look for the possibility to serve and grow as person.
Throughout my life, I've been offered many unexpected paths, and I've always chosen to move forward, no matter how uncertain or intimidating the road ahead may have seemed. My story is a testament to the incredible power of pushing past my fears and doubts and fully embracing the unknown. Now, let me tell you, I was not always fearless. Living true to my inner voice has helped me harness the courage within and build relationships that support me at such moments.
Many years ago, I was at a crossroads in my career. I had a secure renowned job as a CA that I could have clung to, but I yearned for something more. The opportunity to pursue my passion of bridging the gap in leadership development came knocking, and I took that leap of faith. The choice was fraught with risks and uncertainty, but it was a decision that changed the course of my life. It lead me down the road less known, self discovery, self transformation, self innovation and above all, supreme happiness.
Each time I have ventured into the unknown, I have often had to pivot because life doesn't unfold as we plan. There were moments of triumph and moments of despair, but each twist and turn taught me invaluable lessons. I've learned that the unknown isn't something to fear; it's something to be embraced to unleash our potential as a human being.
Embracing a mindset of perpetual youthfulness, I recognize that 10% of my potential is just the starting point for growth. Through my journey, I know that I am here to contribute as I evolve.
So, by sharing and cultivating compassion, I continue to foster personal and collective growth.
I've come to realize that the fear of the unknown is merely an assumption that we can overcome with contemplation and trust in the inner self. It's a door to a world of limitless possibilities waiting to be unlocked.
I encourage each and every one of you to take a moment to reflect on your journey of the unknowns you've faced. Please share your story with us to inspire others because each one of us is a catalyst to another’s growth. Let’s keep the chain of positive vibes and joy going ??
