I've been procrastinating writing a new post for a few days now. Even with all this "free" time at my disposal i found myself putting it off for another time.
I've spent precious time convincing myself that absolutely no one reads my blog (which is not true) and that no one is really interested in what i have to say.
This reminded me of a time i submitted a a job application on behalf of a friend because she thought she was not good enough for the position. She had criticized everything about herself until she decided that she does not deserve a seat at the table. Well, you probably thought the story ends with her getting the position but she doesn't. Instead she receives a call about 6 months after the application was submitted , she was invited for an interview and offered a better position.
How many times have you convinced yourself that you are inadequate?
At times we think our dreams are too big and unobtainable
What i know for sure is that you don't have to have it all figured out, sometimes you need to take a leap of faith.
You are not required to know what the future holds but you can pave a path that leads there.
I would like to encourage you to start working on your dreams TODAY (myself included😅) .
Whatever it is that you are passionate about, that "thing" that sets your soul on fire, make it a priority.
The more you put it off you are subconsciously pushing it so far back in your mind that it completely disappears, and that my friends is how dreams die.
Ps: My title is stolen from one of my favorite songs, Fetch your life by Dj Prince Kaybee and Msaki. I found myself singing the song as i was writing this. For those that are not familiar with the lyrics it goes :
"Fetch your life, go on be alive
Ain't nobody living out here
Be someone who's living out here
Fetch your life, go on be alive
Ain't nobody living out here
Be someone who's living out here"

This absolutely spoke to me. There's something I've been putting off since last year, because I'm waiting for the' perfect time' oh well yesterday I took a decision that I'm no longer postponing, I'm taking a leap of faith this year and pursuing that dream. Thank You for writing this.
