"The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt." Sylvia Plath
When we begin to question ourselves, our entire world begins falling apart. That's a pretty bold statement, but if we truly dive into the after effects of what takes place when doubt crawls into our lives, it really does come true. We can even take it a stage further in regard to chasing dreams. Since the playing field is even more competitive, and doubt comes into our minds, that's when it truly does spoil everything or seems to put a total and complete stop to everything we've ever wanted in this life.
You see, dreams demand everything from you. They demand your total attention, work ethos, eagerness, integrity, and eagerness to sacrifice a good deal to gain them. But when you start doubting your dream and what you're actually doing in life, you aren't giving it your all.
When you hear a person talking of a dream, there's this sense you get from them that they know something is going to really happen notwithstanding huge amounts of anxiety surrounding the whole thing. There's a built-in sense of belief that roots itself so deeply in that person that they can't probably be defeated. That really is true deep faith.
But when you overhear someone who is talking about their passions, and you get the way that they may be slightly on edge about it all, you can be pretty sure that they will really never achieve what they set out to do. It's not that you are rooting against them, but it's that you know dreams take everything and giving it less than that, well, it just won't work out at all. So pour yourself into what you love and let doubt vanish from your mind. Others may say it's not practical but the inconceivable has been achieved many many times throughout history.
Give it a shot. Anything could happen.
