Inse’s heart thumped as he stood outside his new school. His fingers tugged at his backpack straps while his mind swirled with thoughts.
“What if no one likes me? What if I say something silly?”
Curity, his big sister, knelt beside him and smiled. “Inse, it’s okay to feel nervous. But today, we’re focusing on the fourth transformation—Act Despite the Voice of Insecurity.”
Inse frowned. “But what if I embarrass myself?”
Curity gently nudged him forward. “That voice of insecurity will always try to stop you. But guess what? You can still act! Even if you feel scared, take a deep breath and move forward.”
Inse swallowed hard and stepped inside. The school hallway buzzed with kids chatting and laughing. His stomach twisted when he saw a group of kids playing a game with a soccer ball.
“What if they don’t let me play?” the voice of insecurity whispered.
Then he remembered what Curity had said. He took a deep breath. Even if I feel nervous, I can act.
Summoning his courage, he walked up to the group. “Um… can I play too?”
One of the kids grinned. “Of course! What’s your name?”
Relief flooded through Inse. “I’m Inse.”
Soon, he was running across the field, kicking the ball, and laughing with his new friends. The voice of insecurity still tried to creep in, but he didn’t let it stop him.
Later, at lunch, he saw a boy sitting alone, staring at his lunchbox. He looked just as nervous as Inse had felt earlier.
“He might not want to talk to me,” insecurity whispered.
But Inse took a deep breath. Even if I feel unsure, I can still act.
He walked over and smiled. “Hey, want to sit with us?”
The boy’s face lit up. “Really? That’d be great! I’m Mateo.”
As they ate together, Inse felt something amazing—confidence growing inside him.
That evening, he told Curity all about his day. “I was still nervous, but I acted anyway. And guess what? It turned out great!”
Curity grinned. “That’s 4 TFM, Inse! Acting despite insecurity helps us grow. I’m proud of you.”
Inse smiled, feeling warm inside. Maybe, just maybe, his voice of security was getting stronger.
This story clearly emphasize 4 TFM – Act Despite the Voice of Insecurity! 🚀
