Swimming

 Anyone who learns to swim knows what it is like to swim first in insecurity and doubt.  “I don’t know how.”  “ I will drown.”  “I am frightened.”  But at some point they overcome all this by effort.  They get into the water and let go.  It is the letting go and flailing around that begins the process of swimming.  You let go.  you do it badly and with great effort.  Then you swim.  It all begins with insecurity and doubt.  Much in life is like that, learning to swim.  We lack fins, and gill, and fish tails.  But it is not so much lack that keeps us from accomplishments, as it is the fear that comes with insecurity and doubt.  So admit that you have these feelings.  Then just go for it.  You may do it badly at first.  In time and effort you will wonder what the fuss was all about.
