Fear Is a Lie: Gershom Sikaala on How to Unapologetically Go for Your Dreams

Most people show up to a job they hate and continue slogging for hours just to put food on the table. A 9 to 5 may not be everyone’s dream, but people still get trapped in it as they live by societal expectations. Following your dreams will not just help you excel in your field of profession but will also make you realize living your authentic self can add more meaning to your life. Gershom Sikaala, an author, inspirational speaker, and entrepreneur, is helping people transition from being stuck to becoming unstoppable. He is sharing his experiences with life to motivate people to chase their dreams and live happier.

Apart from scaling up all his business ventures from scratch, Gershom continuously motivated people as a mentor to vanquish their fears to chase their dreams. He is the best guide when it comes to fear and hesitation to start a venture because Gershom has also been there. He was afraid to fail, but faith in God and willingness to grind helped him persist.
