I love you my fear.

A new friend asked me about the things I fear the most. My answer – The thing I fear the most is harm coming to my children. And there are other fears also. Fears that are deep seeded. When the fear is deep, I go deeper. I fear stagnation and staying the same. I fear lack of growth and progress. I fear mediocrity and never reaching my true potential. I fear being average. I fear letting those I love down and letting myself down. I fear becoming lazy and ‘settling’ for what is. I fear giving up. I fear dying without leaving my mark and not setting a powerful example for my children. I fear not standing up for myself and not holding my own. I fear constantly doing and being what people expect of me. I fear having to ever compromise my truth. I fear complacency and contraction. I fear having friends by default and surrounding myself with people who watch me stay the same and who do not push me to be more. These are the fears that I never want to stop fearing. These are the fears that give me drive. These are the fears that fuel me. I love you my fear. I love you. #IAMZIVA #badassbydesign #thewayofthespiritualentrepreneur
