Describe a risk you took that you do not regret.

Risks they say is something everyone will pass through in our life but God knows how scary it can be taking a risk on something that you fear the most. Most business today all generated from all type of risk and they at times failed but yet, the founder made more risks in order for the business to thrive

I can remember very well some years ago when I was very very little in my esteem and ways I see myself. I was once a fat or should I say a chubby looking guy who people don’t fail at any given chance to mock the way I look and truth be told, I almost looked femanine because of my body shape. This really took a huge troll on my confidence and the way I see myself until I decided I won’t remain a slave to low self esteem and I came to realise from what a friend told me that you are what you are based on your own definition. No one and I mean NO ONE can decide for you or define you against your own wish. I started doing more public speaking, at my church I will come out for testimony not because there was an actual testimony to be shared with the church but because I wanted to fight the spirit of stage fright. I just wanted to conquer the spirit of fear and it was a struggle. I can remember each time I come out to speak, there will be eyes been thrown at me and this highly discouraged me but I didn’t care. All I wanted is to overcome my fear of what people may think of me, overcome my fear of meeting people and been able to stand in the crowd with my head held high.

To the glory of God, I did all that and now I can say I have built my confidence so much that I look way more handsome than before not because I lost a few pounds but I believe in myself. I looked good outwardly because I felt good inwardly. What a risk I took that looked very huge but it did pay of and I don’t regret it at all.
