What is it about the unexpected that makes us nervous? Is it because we link the unknown to so much uncertainty? Or is that our minds immediately gravitate towards the negative? It’s the unexpected that changes our lives. 

Habits can change your life and, according to Sean Covey, “we become what we repeatedly do.” What we repeatedly think about, say and shape our lives.

I struggled with post-traumatic stress after an armed robbery and fear of being attacked again at night threatened to overwhelm my life. I wasn’t sleeping well, let alone living well. Finally, I came to the point where I had enough of being incapacitated by fear. Either I was to win this battle or give in to the hold fear was trying to establish in my life.
