Hello Everyone! It's another Monday morning with a great week and I hope this well will really turn out to be the best for everyone of us.

As you all know what I do every Mondays except you're new to my blog post. Every Mondays is all about #MondayMotivation and today I'll be discussing a very important topic which seems to be something very common in our lives and this has to do with the fear of starting.

I'm definitely sure there are times whereby we feel very scared or timid to start something very important such as our goals and aspirations. I think there's actually this inner fear that sometimes comes to us by whispering to us some negative thoughts about failure or sometimes if the outcome or result of our outcome appears to be futile and I believe this is a major factor that has actually been affecting most people today.

There are lots of people with intelligent minds and resources but they can't just take that bold step to achieve their goals. The big question is what is really holding such people back? There may actually be lot of factors affecting some people such as lack of finance or lack of resources but the fact is that you definitely need to start somewhere!

Learn From My Experience

As an African student with greater aspirations, I sometimes get scared in fulfilling my goals. I really don't know if my goals are that ambiguous to fulfill but I have always have the habit of setting goals no matter big it may seem. I guess I learnt that habit from a friend of mine who will always tell me "keep aiming higher and never settle down for less."

One of my goals is to start earning some few bucks or probably making money legitimately through legal means and the fact that I'm still young doesn't stops me from doing this. I really hate it when some young rich folks just come around to oppress the weak and poor ones with their wealth and this is really something I detest. I am actually so obsessed with people whom seems to be weak and lack financial support.. This is why I do try my best to be of help in any available form provided by I'm capable of helping.

Whenever I think about my responsibilities it sometimes really do make me sleepless at night and I do feel disturbed about it maybe it's because there are lot of people depending on me but the fact is that this has actually been one of my greatest incentives to always keep me motivated whenever I feel like giving up!

The good news is that even though I am not yet in the exact place I wish to be, I'm definitely not where I used to be. I have been earning some cool cash via blogging on a great platform like this and this is really helping me get some little tip in my pocket. I'm also able to impact the lives of others with the little tip I'm earning as a blogger and writer on this great platform. I really feel very happy about this as it really keeps me very busy since I always love to be productive and at the same time, I'm able to impact others through my writing and also earning.

The fact is that if I had actually allowed negative belief or fear to overtake my decision, probably i won't be able to act just like I'm doing today. This is why I want to encourage you that you should always try to start working on achieving your goals or aspirations and never allow your negative thoughts or overcome your great success.

The world needs you to do something and the more you keep procrastinating, the more it keeps affecting your decisions and actions. You must never allow anything stops you from whatever you intend to do provided it will be of good advantage for you and everyone around you.

Thanks for your time and I hope you have a great day ahead with love from @hardaeborla

I believe that what stops us from taking the first step is the unfounded fear of others, people who are dedicated to predicting failure, perhaps not out of evil, but out of their own beliefs. Before that, it is better to play deaf, or to listen and know how to filter the message, take what can be good advice and leave aside what is a message of discouragement. I congratulate you on your willingness to help others, and I hope you continue to move forward in achieving your goals, sometimes it does not matter how fast you do it but never stop.

Wow! This really got me thinking a lot. This is really very powerful!

Thanks for your lovely comment ❤️💖💕❤️

Hello, very good your publication..
Most people abandon their goals halfway through because of their limiting beliefs, it is important to learn to look for the necessary motivations within ourselves. Because once a project is undertaken, obstacles will surely arise that will make it difficult for us to achieve our goals, that is when we must make use of our determination, perseverance and commitment (and if we let demotivation win out; the last three simply disappear)

Well said! We just have to be optimistic, consistent and never give up on our goals to achieve success on anything we do.

Fears will always be there to limit us, we must work on them, not to eliminate them but to know when they are appropriate and when they are not. Since fear is an emotion that can serve us to face other situations in our life. The important thing is that it does not limit us in our way of living. A greeting and a big hug!

Excellent publication, I always like them hehehe!

This is really why I do say it's a matter of choice though because some people aren't really doing what they wish to do because of fear while some are doing extremely wonderful even with the presence of that same fear.

Thanks for your lovely comment 💖💕❤️

Thank you for coming, my friend. We must fight against the fear that limits us!

Hello @hardaeborla, the first step is always important is the one that gives you the impetus to what you want to achieve, but there is always the fear of failure or stage fright, sometimes it happens because we compare ourselves with other people and think that we will never do it as well as they, that is, we underestimate our abilities, that is why we must be people with very solid criteria with the opportunities that are presented to us, thank you for this motivating article.

You are absolutely very right about this and the truth is that most people fall into this same category but I think it's really best if we stop comparing ourselves to others.

Thanks for your lovely comment 💖💕❤️

So many of us have responsibilities that should scare us normally but certainly my friend we have to relax our minds, wake up every day believing in possibilities and try again.

Hmm... Great words of motivation!

Thanks for your lovely comment 💖💕❤️

Hey @hardaeborla it is good to be young and have so many ideas of your own.
The good part about your life is that you are not stuck in a place and at least moving.
This gives you the opportunity to steer the ship of your life in the direction you want.
However the thought that you have to support others be like the wind beneath your wings so that it takes you higher.
The thing that you say about rich people using their wealth to show off or suppress others...
This is a common thing across cultures we find such people everywhere.
Think of them as empty vessels that only make much noise but are empty and cannot satisfy anybody's hunger or thirst.
Good luck to you in your life
Keep supporting others and the goodness would surly come back to you many fold.

You've really inspired me a lot with your lovely comment and I must actually tell you that I actually feel like doing more of this and there's actually no doubt that goodness will surely come back to the good doers.

Thanks for your lovely comment 💖💕❤️

you are welcome my friend do not let anything disturb you.
Make the most of the opportunities that you get.
Also if possible make some savings however small for the future.

Hmmm... I'll surely follow your advice as you've instructed.

Thanks for the great advice, I really appreciate it.

Thanks for your lovely reply 💕💕💖❤️

The fear of starting has hold me back far more than I care to admit. Thanks for the advice. I'm also from Africa, Nigeria to be precise, and I can relate to your story of the rich opperesing the poor.

Cheers,
