"The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt." Sylvia Plath
When we start to doubt ourselves, our entire world starts to fall apart. That's a pretty powerful statement, but if we truly dive into the after effects of what happens when doubt crawls into our lives, it truly does occur. We can even take it a step farther in regards to chasing dreams. Since the playing field is even more competitive, and doubt comes into our minds, that's when it actually does ruin 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 full attention, working ethos, eagerness, integrity, and willingness to sacrifice a significant deal to achieve 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 come across somebody talking of a dream, there's this sense you get from them that they know something is going to occur notwithstanding great amounts of uncertainty surrounding the entire thing. There's a built-in sense of belief that roots itself so very deeply in that person that they can't possibly be on the losing end of the stick. That really is true faith.
But when you listen to someone who is talking about their passions, and you get the way that they're slightly on edge about it all, you can be pretty sure that they'll never achieve what they set out to do. It's not you're 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 are passionate about and let doubt disappear from your mind. Others may say it's not practicable but the inconceivable has been achieved many many times all through history.
Give it a try. Anything could happen.
