Motivational Thoughts Blog

A friend of mine on the blogosphere Kris Cantrel (it isn’t him on the picture but I have to say that some similarity exist ) inspired me to wrote this post. He is a midle aged husband, father, redneck and geek (it’s how he discribed himself and I’m sure he hasn’t jumble an order ). He has a truly personal blog with his motivational thoughts what I visit time after time. By the way I have found for myself that woman magazines and blogs of elder mankind can give important answers to the fateful questions of my life . But I’m not going to dig so deep today.I just want to talk about the thing or rather the feeling that would like to follow us everysingle day and every single beginning.

“Too many of us are not living our dreams because we are living our fears.”

Motivational Thoguht of Les Brown

So, fear… Blogpost of Khris induced me codify my thoughts about this topic. I have understood withincreasing years that fear is a wholesome feeling… until we are talking about keeping us alive and healthy. Fear helps us stay alive and kicking because the greatest part of us use climbing equipment when klimb mountains, body protection in the bike track, parachute in the time of skydiving etc. Creator provided us with this kind of fear some time befor our arriving. It is rational fear.

Strange to say but after that only first couple of years pass efficient – we learn to stand up and move along. Thereafter all as though conspire against us – “don’t speak that”, “don’t do this”, “you will not do this”, “it is impossible” and so on… All are trying to prevent us from every beginning that we start as if they would be those who would fail. Of course it could be excused as parental care about their children or solicitude of society about an individual. Hovever we can’t gainsaid that a reason of meny fiascos in our further life grow roots here. We must care about our children and others not through fault-finding and scaring with misfortunes but through encouraging them and helping them to take first steps in every beginning.

As I mentioned above I had a habit to leave home without permission of my parents in my early childhood. This wasn’t my only trade. My mother worked as a traffic controller on a railway. I didn’t remember why but sometimes she performed the functions on the narrow gauge railway line that curled through woods by swamps and connected peatries. Sometimes she took me along with her. I liked movies about indians, cowboys and soviet partizans (I like those still) at this time and I have a thorough percept about getting on and getting out of a train in motion. I remember clear those feelings. I did it sensible and step by step – I knew it was dangerous therefore I weighted up two things: no.1 – a place (on the turn) wher the train has the lowest speed (of course if we can talk about a speed in relation to narrow-gauge puffer but don’t remember a fact that I was about six then); no.2 – a sandy slope direct by the rails as a landing point.

I didn’t remember with which try I got into the wagon but I remember how I comprehended that I didn’t foreknew one, fundamental enough, thing – what if I couldn’t jump out – I didn’t know where the train will stops. But it was only a small moment of uneasiness. I said myself that a landing spot was assured, yet more, it was just cool and I just did it – I happily landed into the light sand. At the same time my mother had not the vaguest motion about this affair. I wasn’t an upbraided by mom or fraightened by some “well-wisher” scared little boy then. I was at least a comrade of Goiko Mitic unless himself .

Of course the purpose of this post isn’t to suggest someone to repeat this, no!, as the saying goes: “Don’t do this at home!!!”. I told this just for an ilustration how we can achieve something existing in our imagination by consideration and taking action by using sequential steps.The most important thing here is a relation between rational and irrational fear in common with lack of someones critical attitude. If your irrational fear and criticism of the others do not allow you to do anything just stop for a moment and try to remember – everyone of us, definitely, have the similar moments. Moments when no one can stop you and you did all just perfect. Your fear was your companion then not your pullback.

So, let’s understand your fear, dream, think and act!

“Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they aren’t half the strength you think they have.”
