“The most inspiring person is the one overcoming the fear of doing something, not the one who is excellent at it.”

The other day I was just feeling a lack of accomplishment for doing something most everybody does most every day (not binging/purging /self harming/using substances for various periods of time), but then I heard this and I feel more inspired to continue not doing those things because they are hard for me and they do scare me.

Thanks Boots, excellent post and so true. You help me so much (too) with the hard work you do. And also with your kindness to others (not everyone has that gift)
