Fear Starting Something New - You are not Alone

I wanted to start a Blog for so long. It almost took me a year to write this first article of mine.
I never knew going from an idea to a full reality is not as easy as it sounds.
We can be anything! Right. 
I know a few years from now I will look back to this first article of mine, and laugh my lungs out about the immature and stupid articles I used to write when I first started writing.

I have made peace with the fact now that I might make silly mistakes, maybe become a laughing stock for some people, I might fail, might fall flat on my face. These are some of the fears that had kept me from writing much of my life and my fears were my own roadblocks.

Sometimes, the only thing stopping you from getting out and live your dreams is you yourself.
I feel a different kind of satisfaction now which I never felt.
The voice which always was in my mind saying I am missing a lot, I am hampering my growth. Is calmer now. I feel a sudden rush of excitement.
Now I know that It's the fear of starting which is worse than the act of starting itself.
I don't know where this first post will take me. I don't know where I will be in the coming years.
Maybe this post will be forever buried in the 40-50th page of google search results, never to be read.

Still, I feel the kind of satisfaction I could never have got if I never started out. Sometimes people don't write so that other people want to read. Sometimes they write because they want to tell, they want to share, they want to write. The universe wants to channel itself through those people.

                  This is my beginning. What about yours?
