P.S.

I decided to write a P.S. to my previous post, just to make it more useful. I want to share my own vision with you and how I turned my fear into motivation.
I've always been afraid of failure and what others will think. Especially my family. I have a fear of disappointing them. That's where I find my motivation, I'm too scared of not achieving something, of letting my family down, of regretting it when I get old. That's why I try to do as much as I can, making my own dreams come true, setting goals and achieving them.
I love being in my comfort zone, hidding, but it is so much better for me being out there and facing my fears. For instance I used to be scared of flying, though I kept doing it. I took jobs with lots and lots of responsibility, beyond my qualifications and I still did well, again I was too afraid to fail. I took chances, traveled with people I didn't know, trusted in the goodness of others, got burned a few times, but most of the time I was lucky, I saw kindness and challenges.
So what is my dream and my long term life vision? What do I want out of life?
I want to educate and develop myself into the very best version of the person I am. I want to get as much knowledge as I need on specific subjects, so I can use it and help others. That's why I got interested in self development and coaching. I want to use my experience based on my travels, studies, work and background, and do something good for other people. Someone once told me that I can't save all of them.... And I'm aware of that, but if I can help one person, I'll be more than happy.

Whenever I try new things or go new places I feel uncomfortable at the beginning, I'm usually intimidated by the unknown, but in time I've learned that new things can be blessings. The fear that I feel is more of a doubt, not a real fear. I doubt whether it's good or bad for me.
The night before I went to NY I was doubting, even though I was dying to go. But I was alone, and I've never been there, what if something went wrong.. Though I decided to accept the challenge and embrase the new experience I was about to get. And it was worth it!
