How Fear Stops You From Achieving Greatness

Happy Monday BAye Hive Tribe!!

To achieve greatness, you have to be willing to grow as an individual and improve yourself.  In order to grow as an individual and improve yourself, you must be willing to expand your skill set and be willing to have many experiences that can improve this skill set.  This means that you cannot be afraid to challenge yourself, take reasonable risks, and stepping outside of your comfort zone. If you are fearful, you will not reach the greatness you are capable of achieving.

Many people are fearful and hesitant to step outside of their comfort zones, preferring to do things that they are familiar.  They prefer to do activities and stay in fields that they are comfortable in, that they know they do well.  Few people prefer to step outside of those zones to try something new, handle new, etc. for a few reasons.  One reason is because they fear they will not do well with the new activity or challenge.  A second reason is fear of embarrassment because other people may see them struggle with this new activity or challenge.  A third reason is that they fear ridicule from people because they struggle with this new activity or challenge.  

Fearing taking on new challenges or activities for any of the above reasons or any similar reasons only keeps you from achieving the greatness you are capable of achieving.  By not challenging yourself with new tasks and challenges, you will be unable to grow as an individual because you will not learn any new skills to add to your skill set.  You will continue to excel and be productive in the skills you know, but you won't expand your skill set to grow as an individual and possibly be even more productive and capable than you currently realize.  This is a key reason why you won't achieve the greatness you are capable of; you won't even know if you'll find a better skill you can use to achieve greater goals and accomplishments if you don't take on new tasks and challenges.

Therefore, fear can stop you from achieving greatness because it hinders your growth as an individual and prevents you from learning more about yourself and increasing your skill set and abilities to handle various tasks and challenges.  By being willing to overcome that fear and challenging yourself with new tasks and challenges that get you out of your comfort zone, you can grow as an individual and be able to achieve the greatness you are capable of achieving.
