I messed up too many really good things last year because of fear. My goal moving forward is to listen more closely to positive emotions like hope, love, & joy, and to act on those. Rather than acting, or holding back, out of fear. Working on taking chances and embracing failure or rejection. On asking questions and be comfortable hearing “no.” Finding the balance between boldness and patience. Between empathy and just plain overthinking.
