James Proclaims (4)

I’m not afraid of a little hard work – I am terrified of a lot of hard work.

I’m not afraid that I won’t live up to my potential – I’m worried that I already have.

I’m not afraid to stand up for what I believe in – I’m just not entirely sure what it is that I believe in.

I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty – however, I will never compromise on good hygiene.

I’m not afraid to admit when I’m wrong – it just hasn’t really ever come up.
