YOU ARE AMAZING AND UNIQUE

AMAZING AND UNIQUE?  I DON’T THINK SO!

I can only speak for myself here but I’m thinking you just might agree with me too.  When I was struggling with fear, anxiety and panic attacks I felt anything but amazing and unique.  That condition did such a number on my confidence and self-worth it’s not funny.  Having to say no to things, quitting jobs, driving out of my driveway to go somewhere only to turn around several blocks later to go back home and the list for me goes on…

At one point when the anxiety was so bad that I could barely do anything without intense fear I had this great idea.  A friend of mine was a flight attendant.  Flying was something that I was able to do in my younger days but the thought of being on an airplane at this point in my life was only a dream.  I’m being very real right now in telling you that I was so envious of my friend – jetting all over the place with not an anxious bone in her body!  It was one of my “why God” moments for sure.  So, what did I do about it?  I put in applications with two major airlines- and even let them know I spoke German in hopes of being hired to fly

internationally!  My husband was like are you sure about this?  Was I? Are you kidding, I knew that I could not fly 10 minutes away let alone to Europe! So why did I do it?  To prove that I was ok and to show my husband that I can do what my friend was doing too!  Well I got hired by one of them and I just told my husband that upon thinking about it I just couldn’t do it with small kids at home.  Just one of the crazy things I did in order to give me some very momentary confidence.

Don’t be like I was and let this get to your head!  Have you felt the weight of insecurity over this condition and the limits it imposes on your life?  Have you looked around at times and thought, “why can’t I do that?”  I get it, believe me.  Don’t put your application in to be a flight attendant though!  Simply know that YOU ARE amazing and unique!  Fear and anxiety have absolutely NOTHING to do with who you are and what’s inside you!  What it does do is to put limits on your life which in turn causes us to feel like as though we are just falling short.  God put you on this planet for a purpose and that purpose is NOT TO LIVE WITH FEAR!  Just like me, you didn’t sign up for this life of fear and it in no way diminishes who you were created to be!!

Your future can and will be bright and freedom will not change WHO you are – except that you may end up with a more grateful spirit – It will change WHAT you can do AND allow you to dream again!

And by the way, I do fly again now and several times to Europe too!  And…I’ve even been stretched to get on a jet by myself when I was a sales rep.  That is something that I thought I would never see happen!

I was an amazing and unique creation by our awesome God when I was steeped in a life of fear and so are YOU!  I am really not so different now ~With the exception of the fact that the limits have now been taken off and confidence has replaced fear and insecurity!!

Reclaim your Peace with this program and take your limits off too!  Believe with all of your heart that it is possible!
