Great post! Completely agree with this and it is scary indeed. I'm still not truly happy with my current life yet it is changing for the better.
Take those leap of faiths, don't sell yourself short and don't be scared to live. We should all stop worrying about what people think, what people want and just be who you want to be. Only then you'll be truly happy.
It is scary indeed. Those leap of faiths are one of those scary things, but if you stay on course, it will take you to where you want to be.
