Conquering fear… discovering oneself

My father was the Goliath in my life and everything I did was for him. He was a man of few words especially when my mother died. All he wanted for my sister and I was to finish my course in nursing then work abroad. Every time I disagree to this he would disapprove me and I soon had a fear of rejection. When I took star shooters, my enrollment goal was to let my father attend the PSI basic seminar and he did. The relationship with my dad became better, he understood what I wanted in my life and we were open, honest and trusting to each other. My father passed away a year ago and I’m always thankful I shared the seminar to him. I overcame my fear and focused on creating harmony with my dad. This seminar (Heroic Leadership Course) made me see my greatness, to love and care for myself first. Through this I’m able to reach out to others where I began to contribute to the world wholeheartedly. Working with PSI Cebu, being a wedding planner and becoming a mother and a better wife are the significant experiences that this seminar has brought me. -Glia Benedicto, PSI Cebu Basic Batch 21; Starshooters Cebu Team 3; Heroic class 19
