Let’s talk about goals— I have a lot of them. Always have, always will. There’s always room for improvement, and I like to do cool stuff.

Fear Of Success
FEAR OF SUCCESS For God gave us not a spirit of fearfulness, but of power and love and self-discipline. 2 Timothy 1:7 Have you ever been afraid to do something? Afraid to fail?
