When I was a little girl, my mom put me in dance classes because I loved to dance. I can remember back to some of my first ballet classes when I was about 4, we were learning somersaults, and I could do them perfectly fine at home, but when the day came to practice them in class, I would let the girls in line behind me go in front of me, always making sure I was last in line (the logic of a 4-year-old, thinking that it was a never-ending line and that I’d never have to do a somersault in front of everyone if i just stayed at the back of the line).
.
Eventually, of course, it was my turn to do a somersault, and filled with worry that all of the other kids’ eyes were on me and that I would mess up and fail miserably in front of the class, I choked and didn’t do it. It didn’t occur to me that there were probably only just a few kids watching, and it wouldn’t be the end of the world if I messed up. The real issue was that I lacked confidence in myself, even though I had practiced somersaults at home and was pretty good at them. I went home from that class in tears, upset that I didn’t take the risk in front of my teachers and my mom, who watched from a little window outside the classroom, and show that I was at least willing to try, and that in doing so, I might even shine.
.
As an adult, I try to keep this memory fresh in my mind, as a reminder to risk messing up, and messing up BIG, in front of people...because nine times out of ten, less people are waiting and watching than you think, it won’t be the end of the world if you mess up, and the ones who are watching, won’t care if you fail, rather, they’ll be proud that you TRIED, and who knows, you might even SHINE ❤️
