Day 27: You Can Be Anxious and Still Move Forward

“Courage is not the absence of anxiety — it’s the willingness to keep going anyway.” — Walk the Hidden Path

Teaching

There’s a myth anxiety tells:

*You can’t do this until you’re calm.*

So we wait. For the perfect moment. For the confidence to arrive. For the anxiety to disappear.

But what if calm isn’t the doorway — just the echo of walking through it?

What if you don’t have to wait?

You can be anxious and still show up. You can be scared and still speak. You can tremble and still try.

The truth is, so much of healing is learning to move with fear — not after it’s gone.

You’re not failing because your heart is racing. You’re not weak because you’re nervous.

You’re doing something hard. And that’s brave.

Let today be a practice in movement. Not perfect. Just honest.

One step. Then another. Even if you’re anxious the whole way.
