[ CHALLENGE 50 ] YOU ARE STRONGER THAN YOU KNOW

I was out for a bike ride with a few women, all of us just starting back on our bikes after a long cold winter. We had planned our first long hilly ride for the season. One incredibly strong, fit woman, Sue, was doubting herself (probably like we all were) and said “I don’t know if I can do the hills so I will just take it slow and if I need to, I will turn around and just go back.” We assured her we were all feeling the same way and we would stick together! And sure enough, at the peak of the hill, Sue said “I had no idea I could do that and I almost did not come! Not only did I do it, but I feel great!” Where do you doubt yourself and give up before you even try? I bet there are a few places or situations and things you have missed out on because you were in doubt.
