Why do we contiue walking in the same direction where there's no change. I myself am guilty of it too and I wonder why? I want change and growth in my life yet I don't walk in a different direction, why? Because I fear taking that leap of faith and believing in myself.
This is the same thing as going back and forth and not solving the problem and move on. How you ask? Take me for example, So today I decided to walk to the market to buy veggies. As I'm walking I realise I'm the only female pedestrian, If it's not 1 guy it's like a group of 3 that i pass. As I'm walking I keep on looking back to see am I safe? How far I am from home in case anything happens to me to run and scream. Ok, I continue walking as I'm walking this one guy greets and tries to stop me. I immediately push his hand and walk faster.
As I'm walking fast a sudden thought hit me if I should go back or continue. Bear in mind I fear going back because of this guy and going forward what if I pass other guys like the past guy. I then decided to change my route, crossed and walked on the other side now I see a lady, I'm relieved. Then I decided ahh!!! Let me just go back home to be safe,let me follow this lady. I literally ran to keep up with her until I got home. Ended up not going to the market strangely as I had left for veggies.
When I got home I beat myself up for this unnecessary walk I took to get veggies and came back with none. I then realised I just wasted my time, did not get what I wanted, allowed the fear of continuing and get
to my destination. I judged all these men walking to wherever fearing they might try something.
Now who's the fool? Me of course. Didn't even get what I wanted and time wasted which I can't have back.
Moral of the story, Do not fear to get to your destination rather walk and believe you will come back with what you wanted instead of wasting your time and judging
People you don't know. Stop following the most comfortable options you have to get what you want. Allowing distractions in your path to either slow u down or fear to fall.
I learnt to be comfortable enough in life you have to go through the most uncomfortable things provided they are useful, not harmful and responsible steps. I will not waste my time like this again. Will you?
#Tick Tock
What is your foundation?
Tick Tock aims in walking hand in hand to work on social issues affecting us all. I too have stumbled and I wish to instil optimism, value our ethics, and to motivate. Together we should stand and fight this battle called "Fear" which slows us down and demotivates us. I believe by walking hand in hand to create a better country we will conquer any type of dilemma. Be the change you want to see in the world.
