Fear.
It comes in pretty handy when we encounter a rattlesnake.
Which I did – while camping in New Mexico this spring.
Holy freaking crap.
Fear can save our lives.
But sometimes fear doesn’t protect or serve us.
Sometimes it holds us back.
And keeps us from realizing our dreams.
A few weeks ago an amazing opportunity was presented to me.
An opportunity to work with a brilliant mentor who could help me improve and grow my business.
I almost let it pass me by.
Why?
Fear.
- Fear of failure
- Fear of putting myself out there
- Fear of success
- Fear of this person thinking that I’m not good enough
I felt the fear…
…and said yes anyway.
Everyone experiences fear.
Fear is just a feeling.
It can’t hurt you.
Unless you consistently try to avoid it.
Eat. Drink. Run away. Hide.
Fear can shut you down.
Or wake you up to the possibilities.
What would happen if you felt the fear – and took action anyway?
