Two Types of People

  “There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world: those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed.” ~ Ray Goforth

How often do I let the insecurities
of another person control my decisions
when I take as wisdom that which is
actually self doubt? Do I ever apply instead
the adage, “The best way out is through?”
I have an ability to set my own course
no matter how adamant the other may be,
how clear they are in speaking
“for my own good.”
Maybe they cannot do it…certainly not
if they doubt it so, but I have the right
to choose my own path and who will know
whether I could succeed if I yield that
query to their beliefs…or assertions?
Am I those afraid to try
or am I insecure enough
to let them dictate that I will not succeed?
