My  New Year’s resolution this year was to become comfortable with the uncomfortable;  to face my fears and not let them stand in the way of my dreams.

My feelings are very common and we’re all familiar with them: fear of failure, fear of rejection or fear of judgment. It is what one does with it that makes us different.

So this year I’ve have decided to bring my attention to these feelings when they arise,  recognize them without judgment and just simply CHOOSE  not to get all caught up in their stories.

It seems easy, right?

I wish….

Many  many years of mindfulness practice has given me the experience to know that this is not and overnight process. This will take lots of tiny little baby steps towards the right direction..

The following quote now lives on my screen saver and a constant reminder of my personal challenge this year.

 So I am pleased to say that I have made some progress and proud of my personal progress so far. I have acted on situations that would have totally blocked me just a few months ago.

How can I prove this to you?

 Well what better way is to make myself the most uncomfortable? How about  getting in front of the  camera for a change and show the World to see?!  Just the thought of it makes me cringe ( as a matter of fact I have taken these pictures 2 months ago and written this post 2 weeks ago:)

   Watching me take a few baby steps towards my personal growth this year; I HOPE this post will inspire YOU to  push down some of your personal barriers that you may be struggling with and surprise yourself by doing something you never thought you’d do…. Go for it!

Now if you were hoping to see some boudoir pictures of me….. well sorry to disappoint you….need a few more years of personal work:)
