Feel The Fear And Get Over Yourself!

#teachme Have you ever felt a pull to a certain career or job, but never went through with it? Why? I trust there are many reasons and some valid ones at that... However if it was due to fear, then it essential to explore the fear on many levels.

Let fear be your friend not your enemy. Don't get me wrong, fear has it's place in our lives and can assist us in staying safe and protected. The question I often get is asking how to distinguish between the fear that we are feeling that is self-sabotaging or the fear that is keeping us safe?

This all would depend on the circumstance of course such as walking down a dark alley at night by yourself in the getto...I mean lets be clear here and assume a sense of common sense - I'd say why? Is there no other way? The question to ask is this - "is it worth it"? Meaning whats the worst thing that could happen and then making the choice to take the risk!

It's all about the risk of 'what if'! Most of us unfortunately will analyse the risk and stay focused on that...Which is often "what if I am not good enough".

My theory is this: look at what could go wrong, asses what you'd do if it did - acknowledge this and then asses what could go right, and how if going right could be all the difference in the world to you!!!

All it takes is that first step!
