Dear Mommas and Poppas,
So many of my clients are struggling with fear right now:
applying for a new job, starting a new position, letting go of an old position, buying a house, sending a kid to college, approaching the empty nest, declining a job offer, starting a business.
If you've ever experienced fear, this episode is for you.
Ever been so afraid you think you might puke?
I mean so aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaafraid!?!?!
Of course you have!
We all have.
All humans have fear-- except maybe psychopaths.
Fear is a normal part of the human experience.
The more you are willing to risk, the more fear you will have.It's just not possible to get through this life without fear.
The problem is that most people let their fear keep them small, derail their dreams, and hold them back.
There is another way!
This week I almost died 1,700 times!
I was so scared to fail because I wanted the opportunity so much.
What if I humiliate myself?
What if I fail?
What if I don't get the position?
These thoughts were such a drag.
Then I thought, but what if I kill it!
So I did the task.
I did it SCARED.
Was it perfect?
Heck no.
But we can do hard things.
It wasn't med-school hard.
Doing hard things while scared is the definition of courage.
If it wasn't scary, we wouldn't need to be brave.
We need fear.
Fear keeps us safe and helps us grow to live extraordinary lives.
Fear is amazing.
Fear can come along for the ride-- it just can't drive the car.
Spoiler alert: I did the thing and I didn't die afterward.
In life, you get good at what you do.
If you hold yourself back because of fear, you get good at being scared.
If you don't let fear hold you back, you become FEARLESS.
What could you do if you were fearless?
Anything you want.
Like what you hear?
