Fear


The simple inhibitor of success 

The emotion that blocks us from reaching our fullest potential 

And something that we are far too familiar with

Faliure to succeed- 

This is my biggest fear

In a world where fight or fly are the only two solutions 

We have to make a choice

To either conquer our fears 

Or run from them

And a fighter is always something that I have been 

Armoring myself with courage and faith 

I am able ti battke against my fears

And although I may not win all of my battles 

I do learn something evrytime 

And I revise my strategy each time 

And I try again 

And again 

Until I succeed

Because failure is not something that I let define me
