what would you do if you knew you could not fail?

What would you do if you knew you could not fail? It’s an interesting question and one that definitely gets the creative thought process started. Take the fear of failure out of the way and a whole new world opens up and boy oh boy it’s full of possibilities.
There are lots of people that are stuck in their lives. They dream of a better job, a different living situation or perhaps a return to school. I always wanted to write a book or learn to paint you might quietly think to yourself. As you daydream about these things a little spark of excitement begins to develop and grow into a small flame. Maybe you can picture how this new dream might look.
And then, fear in all its glory steps in and extinguishes the fire of excitement and possibility. Fear can come in many forms. It could be the little voice in your head saying “Get real, you can’t do that. What if it doesn’t work out?" Oh but that is only one way fear shows up. Sometimes it shows up in the voices of those closest to you. “Why do you want to do THAT?" They ask if you happen to share your dream with them. “Things are fine just the way they are." “What if it doesn’t work?"
