Scare yourself

Dear daughters,

A few years back I was told by someone I admire that in order to keep themselves moving forward they do one thing every day that scares them. It could be something little or something massive. I chose to adopt this.

For the following years I have consciously chosen to challenge myself. Some examples of this:

– waterskiing in the SeaWorld stunt show

– calling a potential client to discuss how I can help them – I am always scared of saying the wrong thing or being rejected

– managing a wedding day

– making decisions on behalf of you girls whether big or small

– actually, being a mum in general is scary as i am always guessing as to whether what I’m doing is right for you kids

– facing my inner demons

Doing something scary and getting through it successfully shows you your strength and resilience, builds self-esteem and gives you a sense of accomplishment.

So go ahead my beautiful daughters, jump head first in to something scary. If you fall I will catch you x

All my love

Mum
