At the ripe...Today's wwcd is especially timely. At the ripe age of 25, I am feeling that I have to be unafraid to work for and commit to the things I want for myself. Making excuses, albeit legitimate ones, is easy and quietly and steadfastly working towards your goals is the hard part. I believe that publicly I appear to be the latter, however, I privately feel that I am 100% guilty of the former. It seems that I am waiting some sort of sign to let me know that the time has come.<br /><br />I wonder what I am waiting for. My goal is grad school and quieting the whisperings of "Focus on your new job!" and "You need more work experience!" and "Oh, it's so expensive!" and "I need more time to study!"and of course "Am I smart enough to pass that test?" has been difficult.The more I analyze my inaction and reasons therefore, the more I realize these are feelings that I will probably always have regarding some element of my life or another terminally.<br /><br />I am thus committing to myself as I have committed to a lease, a job, and a few men. I will do it: quietly, earnestly, and without fear.<br /><br />Because after all we have nothing to fear, except fear itself and the worse failure of all is not to try.Ryann Gallowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15270654279280156717noreply@blogger.com
