Fearless

Fearless: adj. - without fear; afraid of nothing; brave; daring. SYN. intrepid, courageous, dauntless

I read an article on yesterday from the August issue of Essence entitled "The Art of Living Fearlessly." The article spoke of living a life where there are no boundaries, no limits to what a person can do. Some of the subjects of the article (whose names have been changed) spoke of how they had to conquer fear in order to live a fearless life. What I liked about what one of them said was that she did not want to have a life of regrets. I began to think, while reading this article, how my own life is full of regrets up to this point - regrets of missed opportunities, regrets of not believing in myself, regrets of not taking a chance, regrets of listening to others when I should have listened to my inner voice, and regrets of not starting my businesses sooner. As the list continued on & in more details, I decided that I will not have anymore regrets. I don't want to get to the end of my life and wondered whether I could have had that dream home, that dream car (Remini Red Range Rover Sport HSE), have those dream business relationships, or a list of other "what ifs".  As the article stated, "There are no guarantees-but life is about having big dreams, taking the risk to pursue those dreams, and then seeing them through to the end."  How would you live your life fearlessly from this day forward? Until next time.
