Overdosed on Confidence.
Fear have never been a factor to stop me from accomplishing any thing I set out to do. Literally, I would say that I am quite overdosed on confidence when it comes chasing my dreams, goals or anything I set out to accomplish.
I am not one to be scared of losing anything, rather I tackle things head on. He who has nothing to lose, has nothing to fear. I chase my dreams knowing fully well that there are two things involved. It is either I lose or I win. If I lose, I would go back to my drawing board and correct any mistakes I made, then I move on. If I win, I put in more efforts to make sure that I do better.
I am not always like this, I mean, being very confident in myself. I use to be someone with low self esteem. I barely talk to people, not because I don't want to talk, but because I use to fear how they would respond when I talk to them. With my head held low, I try to keep to myself as I avoid being criticized by people.
I never envisioned myself being as confident as I am today. When the context is about life, disappointments, chasing business and goals in general, I would say that I am literally fearless. Even if I have something to lose, I have grown to the extent of understanding risk taking, risk bearing, risk management and how to cope with loses, so, even if something would not go my direction, I am never scared.
I do have my fears. However, like i said earlier, my fears are not about chasing my dreams or building aa business or something. One of my biggest fear is sky diving, and being in water. I am really scared of these things. I hate water travels. Like, what if there is an accident and the ship starts sinking. Imagine what happened with the Titanic. No matter how beautiful the Titanic was, I would never ever think of boarding it to travel. I really scared of travelling through water. I would be okay if there is a helicopter or any other back up plan in case there is an accident. Aside, that, I don't think I would ever want to travel through water.
Speak of sky diving... How do people even do that? Ho would someone have sky diving as a favorite sport? I mean, what if the something happens to your parachute and it was not able to open? i know it is rare for a parachute not to work properly, but then, it could happen. Or what if instead of a parachute, you mistakenly took a back pack? Imagine jumping out of the window of an airplane with a backpack. Nah bro, I can never do sky diving because I am too scared of it.
However, if fear could not stop me from doing something, I may try these two things - that is travelling with a ship and going for a sky dive. Sky divers look like they are having the time of their life when they do it. I may love to do it so I can feel the intense adrenaline rush that sky divers do feel when they do it. But on a normal day I would never want to do this sport..
Thank you for reading.

Love that you treat losing as just a chance to fix mistakes and go again instead of a reason to quit. Also the plot twist at the end got me — fearless with dreams and business, but skydiving and deep water will still humble you lol
One of your biggest fear, is my fear too. I fear sky diving but if there is chance I will love to try. I love being in water.
