What Turns a Good Thing Into a Disaster?

Picture this.

Something good has just happened to you.

I mean, really good.

A dream come true, you might dare to say.

At first, you’re ecstatic.

I made it!

It works.

My wishes have been heard at last.

Thank you, God!

Thank you, Universe!

So you celebrate.

You rejoice.

You share the good news with the whole world.

And then…

One seemingly feeble thought creeps into your mind.

Isn’t this too good to be true?

You hesitate for just an innocent split of a second.

But soon she invites the entire gang of other similar doubts.

Am I capable enough?

Am I worthy of this?

Will I be disappointed?

Will I disappoint others?

And once doubts seize hold of your entire mental space, the path is clear for FEAR to take the stage in full armor.

Since that moment, there’s no point of return.
