You have what it takes

Ever had that feeling where you want to do something, but something is pulling you back?

You want it badly, but there's this wrenching feeling that lies in your heart giving you the alert messages telling you that 'no, you don't have what it takes to do it'. Or someone's always making you feel like you're not good enough, and so you don't have the confidence to do it and tend to doubt yourself over and over again.

Well, I want to tell you that you have what it takes.

Now, I'm not saying you won't fail every once in a while, but why do we fail? So that we can pick ourselves back up again, and continue trying down a different path. Don't let anyone else make you think otherwise. Follow your heart, and do what you want. Because at the end of the day, it's your life. At the end of the day, you will look back at what you've done so far, and you will wince at the misfortunes but you will also smile of the great things that have happened to you.

Whatever it is that is pulling you back from whatever you want to do today, believe in yourself for once and do it already. I know it's hard, because I often doubt myself over and over again, at 3am in the morning, and have that little voice in my head repeatedly saying, 'you're not good enough, you're not good enough'. But you know what? I don't let it stop me.

Through sleepless nights, I've learned that it's better to do what you want today, than to regret it tomorrow when your chances are gone. And even if you fail the first time, remember that there is always the second time. It is when you allow failures and second chances into your life that you truly live your life.
