We all have fears that stop us from doing, achieving, and succeeding. Even after years of training myself, I still have fears and worries just like everyone else!
I’ve learned from being a psychologist that worrying doesn’t do us a whole lot of favors, and fear doesn’t get us anywhere good. It’s not to say worry is always a bad thing -- it’s just human nature to get worried sometimes. However, we can worry too much, and that is when it starts to get in the way of our moving forward or pushing through barriers in our way.
Fear has stopped me from doing a lot of things! But I’ve learned how to manage it better over the years. I am certain that it’s something we can all push past too. Worry is normal, but when we aren’t mindful of it, it can become a habit. We become stuck in this worry wormhole and fear begins to rise to the surface, making it hard to get out.
In this episode, you’ll learn how I got out of this cycle of worry. After this episode, you’ll have a better understanding of how to make your fears more manageable and how to stop thinking small and live up to the dreams you’ve set for yourself.
