The challenge of being human
	Can stop us in our tracks
Every time we try to do
	Anything that really counts
It is a part of who we are.
	The tendency to be small.
The sense of getting overwhelmed
	Of simply feeling scared
Thinking who am I to succeed
	Procrastination constipation
Amnesia and paralysis
	Just being uncomfortable
Being disorganized and confused
	Not having enough time
Or closing down and not communicating
	What needs to be said
Complaining about and judging what is
	Rather than being at cause
In creating a change
	Taking it personal
Taking offense
	It is all about us, we think
Comparisons 
	Our worst against their best
Letting not wanting to do it stop us
	Playing it safe
And being in control
	Being confronted
The burden of looking good
	It appearing to be
Just too much hard work
	Thinking we already have it made
Deluding ourselves into complacency
	Being out of integrity
Where our actions don't fit our words
	Avoiding confrontation
Fear of addressing the issues
	And fear of failing
Or simply looking silly
	That keeps us in our place
Wondering, Wondering
	How does anyone ever succeed?
