THE CROWN 👑 I ALMOST DIDN'T CLAIM__DAILY PROMPT 13 JUNE

I stared at the "Submit" button for 7 minutes.

Last year I clicked it. Froze on stage. Lost the crown.
The judges said "Better luck next time."

Today the same email popped up. "Final attempt."

My hands shook. My chest said "not gonna fail this time."
My brain said "you always freeze."

I closed my eyes. Remembered my sister's voice last night:
"You either win or you learn. There's no losing."

I clicked.

The screen loaded. Spinning wheel.
My heart stopped.

"Congratulations. You passed."

Sometimes the only thing between failure and freedom
is one button you’re scared to press.

What’s the button you’ve been avoiding?
