This act is tough but is totally worthy and your future self will thank you for it. As Paulo Coelho once put it – "When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not ready. The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back.". Therefore take a deep breath and seize the opportunity, you CAN do it! You just have to unleash your fears and concentrate on your desires instead.
