Hey Pooja

Here’s to another memorable year,lovely lady! #HUGS

I vowed to not open any of my Inbox messages until later today, but your intriguing title drew me to your amazing article! Kudos!

Your title is quite a coincidence because couple days ago, I posted the following quote on Facebook: “The thing you think you cannot do is a much easier to do than you think” 😉

I have never heard of that book, but it feels good to find others with similar thoughts!

I thoroughly ENJOYED your stories in this article! <3 And it feels wonderful to know that someone else is scared of sky-diving 😉 ehhe My husband too wants to 'drag me to my death' 😉 hehe Not happening 😛

LOTS of love
Kitto

Hello; I didn’t say no to sky diving but promised to go to a place in new zealand that specializes in tandem jumps for blind people. figure the cost of the trip gives me some time to work with. 🙂 I recently took the advice of my friends and started sharing more openly about my experiences being a blind person starting and building a business. the first two posts have been very well received. I still have trouble with the idea of being an inspiration to people but I’m working on it. I’m also now open to coaching and public speaking two more things I never saw myself doing. thanks for the post, Max

I think living in the present is my preferred method of defeating the fear of the unknown. I try and take a look around and ask ‘what’s the worst that can happen to me right now?’

It almost always calms me down and give me the confidence to cope with whatever may happen next.

Hi Anita,

Absolutely! Jumping out of a plane is just a metaphor. We all have our “diving” moments in different contexts and situations. For sure.

Hi Jack,

Thank you. A lot of us can identify with the farmer in our own little ways.

But I’m curious if there’s a specific reason that comes to you for feeling anxious?

Marg,

Haha – love the way you tell it. I bet the pilot is used to jumpers grabbing his hand. 😉

Isn’t it amazing that once you’re past that initial barrier (in your case getting out of the plane), life sorts itself out and gives you something beyond imagination?

Great story. Thanks for sharing.

Pooja

Great to see you here Aunty! 🙂 Personally, for me, I love fear. Whenever I feel it, I know there’s opportunity hiding just behind the imaginary wall of fear, so dig it.

Thanks for stopping by!

Pooja
