Does this hold YOU Back?
I contend that ALL our decisions are influenced by our thoughts, which are very often influenced by our fears.
Our beliefs, shaped by our experiences, education, parenting, and so on, create mental frameworks that influence how we react or respond to everything in life.
A tiny fear spike that goes unresolved can ignite a whirlwind of emotion that leads to negative thoughts.
This can destroy confidence, relationships, and opportunities.
Fear is that powerful.
Last weekend at the ETR event at my home, I told the group that the fear spike needs to become your 'fear spark'. It needs to be converted into an action, a spark that ignites introspection, conversation, and action.
If you leave it as is, it empowers the fear loop.
Fear 'inter-fears' with it all.
Our ability to see fear differently changes how we communicate >> with ourselves and with our family, inner circle, and team.
You do NOT want to stay in the fear loop.
The quote on the meme is from my recent podcast with the amazing Chris Duffin:
"What holds everybody back on the planet Earth is their relationship with fear."
When it comes to [any] crisis, you are the first responder in your fight (the first responder you called is the second responder).
Manage the fear - manage the fight.
“If you didn’t fear fear, what would you SAY, what would you do?”
Think about that.
It’s our fear of fear that's the real danger.
It’s the fixation on the [negative] idea that creates the fear loop.
Fixation is what creates anxiety and this is what produces the negative movie in our mind.
The goal is to improve self-awareness so we catch this happening in our minds.
Then we need a strategy to understand and self-correct. This is the formula of the KNOW FEAR® program.
The fear spike is real.
Turning it into THE SPARK is up to you.
Those who manage the fear, manage the fight.
