What is your greatest Fear? Over the weekend, at a client event, asked this question and received quite a few answers from “fear of spiders” to “dying young and leaving my children behind”. What is your greatest fear? We all have them so don’t be afraid or ashamed! Once we acknowledge our fears, we can recognize them, take them on and put them behind us.
With life comes fears. Do you want live with fear? If you do, you could allow that fear to get in the way of where you are going. Imagine, you are afraid of spiders so you avoid any room where you believe spiders may appear. That means you avoid so many rooms because spiders are everywhere. If you avoid rooms, you avoid opportunities. Acknowledge your fear: SPIDERS, tell yourself spiders are not going to get the best of you and go into a room where there may be those creepy crawly insects and show them that you are not afraid!! See how good you feel and what opportunities lie within the room “full of spiders”.
Today, have the courage to face your fears and take them on! With overcoming fear means gaining confidence in who you are and where you are going. You can do it! What’s holding you back? True, fears are intimidating, absolutely. So start by not letting your fears get the best of you and walk in a room with spiders!
