Ever dreaded a conversation, expecting the worst—only to find out it wasn’t nearly as bad as you thought? Our minds love to jump to worst-case scenarios, but so often, the things we worry about never actually happen. Today’s post is a reminder to shift our focus from fear to trust.

Some of the most important things in life don’t happen because we feel inspired. They happen because we choose to show up, even when we don’t feel like it. Whether it’s faith, leadership, or personal growth, consistency matters.

Most people think leadership is about what happens in public—the big moments, the recognition, the influence. But the real test of leadership isn’t when people are watching. It’s in the unseen moments, when there’s no applause and no one to impress. The way you lead when no one is looking determines the kind of leader you’ll be when the spotlight comes.
