Allstate Good Life is all about taking the good with the bad and not letting fear take over our lives. Have you seen their new commercial? It talks about how even though there are all these risks out there that we might encounter we keep on going and we don’t let fear take over us. We as people don’t let risks and fear hold us back from making our lives good. Did you know that Allstate is an insurance company who works everyday to help build more good in the lives of their customers? That’s an insurance company that I want to be part of!
I am scared of heights. And I mean like, can’t go on the ladder going up to the attic because I will have a panic attack terrified. I guess the biggest thing is I don’t want to fall. I don’t like the feeling of falling at all. But I am always trying to overcome this fear. A couple of months ago we went to a local attraction and I went on SkyHike there. The SkyHike goes from 12 feet off the ground to 40 feet off the ground. I wanted to do this so bad with my family as we were waiting in line I almost talked myself out of it 20 million times! But I knew that I had to do it. I got all strapped in to the harness. Had them check it a couple of more times just to make sure it was good to go. I knew in my mind that I wasn’t going to fall but 12 feet, to me, is so high off the ground. I went to the first wooden slat that I had to cross and guess what..I did it! Now the fear did not go away but I managed to do the first two levels without having a full blown panic attack. I did not want to let fear rule me and I didn’t. Now the next activity I want to tackle is ziplining.
Whether you are trying to tackle life’s little problems for something big you can overcome anything.
