What are you afraid of?

Sure some are afraid of spooky stuff, dying, failure etc. but most of all, what really cripples us is the fear of others. What they think of us, what they might say, if they'll accept us or reject us.

In the entire history of the world there has never been, nor will ever be anyone that has reached their FULL potential while still holding onto the "fear of man" or what others think about them.

As I'm putting together my thoughts for a possible photo seminar I'm compelled to face this reality.

We will NEVER be all that we are created to be as photographers or anything else in life if we live by our fears and what others think of us!

Really my only two fears are:
1. Not being a good witness for Christ.
2. Bring a bad Father and Husband.
Other than that nothing else realy brings me much fear.

that's cuz your so incredibly good looking!

for real though, i think we have all sorts of fears that we are not even in touch with, little things that keep us from walking in our full potential. they might not seem huge but the impact of them long term can be.
