Two boys dove into a river one day, challenging each other to swim across.
They swam strongly and steadily with the lead swimmer, not looking back, till he got to the other shore. Then, he realised that his friend was nowhere near.
“How was it that you did not follow me across?” He asked. The boy who turned back replied, “After I got about halfway, I looked back and saw how far I had come, I became afraid I could not make it, so I turned back.”
“The boy who swam across said "Couldn’t you see that it was just as hard to turn back as it was to continue swimming to your goal?”
One of the biggest obstacles to reaching our goals is fear.
Fear is an emotion that overrides our intelligence. It stops us from moving toward our goals, and negatively impacts our quality of life.
