Do you have what it takes?

This is one question that almost everyone asks themselves before taking any step-in life that seems huge. I also asked myself when I was getting ready for a debate for the first time in my secondary school.

I wasn't sure if I had what it takes to stand before the crowd and defend a cause. "Am I going to sound convincing enough?" "Were they going to believe what I had to say?" I had plethora of questions but these questions were only going to be answered if I got out on that field and did the debate.

Truth is, you'll never know if you have what it takes for a job until you take a step and "put yourself out there" like a friend once advised me to.

This isn't something you've never heard before but you're really doing yourself no good by waiting to figure everything out before taking a step.

For years, I fancied with the idea of creating a blog. I would read about blogs, go to other people's blogs (already made people) and come back to tell myself that I didn't have what it takes to put myself out there like the others.

But today I'm here, out here, and you could go out there yourself too. Just take the first step and see how things work out.
