Overcoming Self-Doubt

See this content in the original post

I asked myself, “Am I too late? Did I wait too long to start this plan or this journey?”

A thought immediately came to my mind:

“Girl, how are going to be late to your own life?”

Whatever happens in your life and the order in which things happen, happen according to God's plans.


So how does this apply to you?
Close your eyes and think of a dream you’ve held in your heart for a long time. Is it actually too late to achieve that plan, or do you need to come up with a plan to achieve it? Sometimes our goals seem so large because we have convinced ourselves that they are. But are they? Are there tiny steps we can take to accomplish our huge goals?

I love this quote from the book, The Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino:

Whenever self-doubt creeps up about the amount of time it takes for me to achieve my goals, I think of this analogy. It helps me to persist and believe that whatever was meant for me to achieve is possible. All I need to do is keep chipping away at it.
