self doubt

I'm smart, but i know people who are smarter. I'm cute but ive seen prettier. Im funny but Im no comedian. I''d like to think to think im a leader but you aren't subject to follow. Truth is im only a little above average. From the outside looking in not much separates me from the crowd. I don't always feel like im good enough, as a matter of fact i rarely feel like im good enough, especially when it comes to academics. I have confidence in myself as person, as a young woman, but as a student im at square one, desperately attempting to build a strong foundation. i want so much out of life, and i know what it takes and what is required of me, but im so afraid of failing that i only hinder myself emotionally. However, i never let the fact that im insecure stop me from achieving, it drives me to do better. From the outside looking in I may appear average, but this average woman will do extraordinary things in the near future, and thats all i require of myself.
