Opening Reflection:
Fear is a quiet decision-maker. Sometimes we don’t even realize how much it’s steering our lives—nudging us to stay small, silent, or safe. It dresses up as logic, caution, or even “realism,” but at its core, fear keeps us from expansion.
Today, I invite you to ask yourself a bold question: If fear wasn’t in the room—what would I do? Where would I live? Who would I love? What would I create? How would I show up?
This is about more than just thrill-seeking or chasing big goals—it’s about uncovering the quiet ways fear edits our choices. Naming it is the first step toward choosing differently.
Today’s Prompt:
If I had no fear, what would I do differently in my life?
An Excerpt from My Own Journal:
If I had no fear, I would stop waiting for the perfect time. I would share my art freely, without obsessing over how it’s received. I would pitch myself more boldly, speak more directly, and stop dimming my light to make others comfortable. I would trust that everything I desire is already on its way—I just need to stop standing in my own way.
(I go on to list out specific actions I would take if fear wasn’t present)
Off-the-Page Practice:
Write down one thing fear has been holding you back from—and take a small action toward it today. Whether that’s sending the email, recording the video, signing up for the class, or admitting the dream to yourself—prove to fear that it doesn’t make the rules anymore.
Final Thought:
Fear will always be a passenger, but it doesn’t get to drive. The life you’re imagining without fear? That life is still yours to claim—with courage, with faith, and one small brave step at a time.
