Security is generally considered to be a good thing. The definition alone can make you feel good, safe and secure. Se·cu·ri·ty [si-kyoor-i-tee] is defined as freedom from danger, risk, etc.; safety. Freedom from care, anxiety, or doubt; well-founded confidence.
We have become accustomed to the love and appreciation for security. We like it when the security guard or police officer is on the scene, when we set our home alarm system, when our bank accounts are secure and the security of having a regular paycheck.
Security can can be a good thing; however security is not always a great thing. As a matter of fact security can often cause people to limit their potential. I talk with people on a regular basis that have desires, passions, visions and dreams that they will never attempt to reach because of the security of their current situation.
“There is no security on this earth; there is only opportunity.” ~Douglas MacArthur (WWII General)
When your security is getting in the way of you being willing to take a risk, pursue your dreams and reach for the stars, maybe it’s time for some insecurity. It may be time for you to get off balance and turn your state of comfort into a state of pursuit.
Security Is Not Always A Good Thing!
