The Courage in Being Seen Trying

August 22nd, 2023

There's absolutely no issue with embracing the journey of being seen while trying something new. Having the courage to step into the spotlight as you embark on starting a business, joining a book club, creating YouTube videos, managing a blog, or engaging in any venture that places you in the public eye is a truly admirable feat. This process is a testament to your strength, resilience, and the belief you hold in your aspirations. Embracing such visibility is a beautiful and empowering act, one that you should wholeheartedly take pride in and Celebrate. It showcases your willingness to step out of your comfort zone, take risks, and grow as an individual. So, here's a friendly reminder that it's completely okay to be visible while trying, and any feelings of embarrassment are not truly valid. What matters most is your own perception, and the opinions of others hold no real relevance in your journey.

Being visible in your attempts to achieve something doesn't just benefit you, but it also serves as an encouragement for others who aspire to start something new. Collectively, we give each other the courage to step into uncharted territories that might otherwise seem intimidating. It's fascinating to observe how some individuals I knew were initially hesitant to showcase their potential and start on new ventures due to apprehensions. However, this apprehension should never deter anyone, life is precious and we should strive to live it to the fullest and live fearlessly (this is your life - your story).

We each are granted just one life, and when we look back on it, the satisfaction comes from knowing that we embraced a multitude of experiences, faced challenges head-on, and Took Risks. Don't allow perceptions that label trying as embarrassing to hold you back. The truth is, only a handful of people truly venture out and try new things in their lives anyways. So, dare to be different, embrace your uniqueness, and have the courage to stand out in a crowd. Your efforts could spark inspiration in others and lead the way for positive change.

In the past, I used to feel a bit unconventional for constantly exploring various paths and dipping my toes into different aspects of life. When someone once asked if this ongoing experimentation felt strange, my answer was a confident "no." This is because I firmly believe in the strength of being visible while embracing new challenges; it not only fuels my own drive but also sparks inspiration in others. My goal is to lead a life so rich with experiences that anyone discovering the extent of my pursuits would find it astonishing. Along the journey, the concept of failure loses its grip, as I've come to recognize that true success lies in running my own unique race on my terms.

Life becomes a reflection of your choices, and I'm here as a constant source of inspiration to encourage you to embrace change and transformation, and actually want that for yourself. Often, it's the smallest actions/words that can alter your trajectory/perspective, sometimes we know things but never put into practice and need a reminder. Begin by reinforcing the notion that being visible while trying is perfectly acceptable. It's essential to cultivate these positive affirmations because everything we engage in is a form of practice. Thank you for taking the time to read this post, and always remember that "Life is what you make it!"

Life is what you make it…You are what your life makes you…So spend time in making your life. ~Vidhi Tiwari
