...and do it anyway! I really enjoy starting my New Year with my brand new 2023 Artist of Life Workbook! Getting to review all of the accomplishments (and disappointments of 2022), and then feel the excitement of goal setting in 2023, is a very refreshing and a renewing feeling for me. Yet, even with all this positivity I try to bring into each day and my motivated efforts in sticking with my goals, I still find that the fear creeps in. Even with the greatest of plans, it can all become overwhelming. The doubt sets in and the ‘what ifs’ start to flood my mind, but I take a beat, breathe deeply and remember what I’ve chosen as my theme for 2023: “Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway” which I have adopted after reading the book of the same name by Susan Jeffers. |

Fear never goes away, at least not mine. It has gotten quieter over the years indeed, but I have to keep pushing past it. One of my favorite quotes from George Addair states: “Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear.” This is beyond true! I have to remind myself that the fear will never leave, but I can make the choice to take action anyway. It is not easy, and some days are easier than others, but I hope everyday of this year, you continue to feel the fear (and ALL the emotions that come along with going after your goals) and DO IT ANYWAY! Every day is a chance to try again and I am wishing you all a courageous and goal getting 2023! Stay hydrated! -- Jenni Lynn Patterson LaCour |
