The True Definition of Being Fearless

"To me fearless isn't not having fears, it's not that you're not afraid of anything. I think that being fearless is having a lot of fears, but you jump anyway." — Taylor Swift 

Sometimes, I wonder where I'd be if I were truly fearless. What if I didn't hesitate or second-guess myself?

Maybe I'd have done all the things that I've always dreamed of, without worrying about the 'what-ifs' and 'buts'.

There are so many moments where fear held me back but there were also times when I faced my fears, acknowledged them, and worked towards overcoming them even if it was just in the small little things.

That's the thing about fears — they push us to grow, to overcome, and to be a little braver each time we face them. 

So, in a way having fears and jumping in despite of them might be the true definition of being fearless.

It's like saying, "Yeah I'm scared, but I'm going to do it anyway." And, honestly, that's pretty bold.
