I have learnt to push aside self doubt.

This is week has been a huge mile stone in developing Support for Mums.  I held a pre-incorporated meeting to sign off necessary paperwork.  We also appointed a board for Support for Mums.  In attendance where seven intelligent, articulate and successful women who have all volunteered to be part of Support for Mums.

This week I learnt that sometimes ignoring your self doubt and running off your adrenaline and passion can be productive.  Self doubt can be debilitating and can often cause so many people not to take chances or risks and therefore not fulfill dreams.

I am so glad that I have put aside my self doubt and focused on my dreams which are now goals for Support for Mums.  A service that will assist so many mums and their families during circumstantial crisis.

Self doubt can also play a huge role in parenting.  We receive so many mixed messages from 'experts' about how and when we should be doing things with our children.  Does this expert advice just give us further self doubt about how we are raising our children and suggest that we are doing it wrong?

This week I have learned to put aside my self doubt and follow my heart and passion. This has not only increased my confidence it has also enabled Support for Mums to be at the stage it is at the moment with realist goals.

Does self doubt stop you from pursuing your goals?
