I suffer from "starting something new panic", which is where I overthink before starting something new because what if it's not good enough or witty enough or creative enough or smart enough or captivating enough or what if I don't stick with it long enough that I just avoid it all together. But sometimes, if not always, you should start something simply for sake of getting the start out of the way.

I often don’t want to tell people about ‘new’ things I’m doing because I am fearful that I’ll fail, or I won’t follow through, and that I won’t meet my own or others expectations.
But I hate living with that fear or that guilt. it isn’t productive, and it means I don’t get to share the new things that are bringing me joy, so I’ve started telling people about the new stuff I’m doing, because I’d rather people know that I’m taking the leap and that I sometimes fail, than hide that from everyone, including myself.

Whatever it is you’re wanting to do, just go for it. Give it your all. Even if it isn’t the best, do the best that you can do in this very moment. Failure means you get to try again with a different approach. Not everyone’s going to get what you do, and that’s okay there will be people who will. Don’t fear standing out or dim your own shine to match others, you’ll never know who you’ll inspire. Never stop learning or being curious, life is about exploration and discovery.
And most importantly, it’s never too late to start over, reinvent yourself or chase a dream.

lately I've felt something new growing behind my heart, kind of near the back by my spine. It's a mass of feeling that a new internal shift is coming, something that will break the mental cycle I've been stuck in since 2020. When I was younger, life felt like it was constantly changing, I was constantly moving in the correct direction. However the last four years have felt like I have been standing at the station, waiting for my train to arrive. But when it does, I watch the doors close over and over again as I tell myself not to worry, I'll catch the next one. Maybe soon I'll find the energy to lift my foot and take the step on.
