Being Comfortable with your own skin

How many of us can say with great confidence,
I'm cool with who I'm, who I'll be.
Even the high achievers that I know are also caught up in this mix too!
What more, an average Joe, like yours truly.

Yesterday, thru a simple session of bowling, I learnt that I've to be comfortable with whom I'm now.. What I may become in the future. I should not try too hard, or think too little and lose those plans.
What has worked before, you need not break it, just for the sake of 'improvement'

For me, its about living life without the weight of useless fear. Using bowling as an a real-life analogy, I was very worried about straining or re-tearing the tissues in my right forearm and wrist, however, the more worried I was, the more oblivious that my whole body was struggling to adapt; to compensate for the fear , and my release of the bowling was all over the place. I was trying to hard, switching too much.

My immediate reaction was to not think so much, and bowl... but that didn't help either. Becoz, I was still very self-conscious.

I need to bring the game that I always play. Its not reckless abandonment, but a manner of, going in , with all the best, fearing a poor performance @ the moment then the 'grey' future. I got to go ahead with 'my head on fire' of sorts. Passion!

Yup, so I have to learn that I gotta be comfortable who I'm , becoz, if no matter how much people may dislike or praise me, it has to first start with how I view myself first; and my attitude towards others would follow suite.
