Fear Makes Us Selfish

I have a friend who is plagued by fear.  Name a topic and she can tell you what is scary about it or how it could lead to something bad.  I admit that I have to balance my time with her.  It is generally exhausting and well...scary, to be around her.

The other thing I noticed recently is that she has trouble talking about things outside of what she's scared about.  She has many people who love her and yet she rarely  asks them about their lives or what's going on with them, not because she doesn't care, but because it takes all her energy to talk about the current things she's worried about.

Have you ever been to a performance or listened to a speaker who is so scared the entire audience is tense?  The speaker/performer isn't able to give the audience what they need because they can't see outside their nerves.

Someone who fails a test when they know the information perfectly and just froze with fear while they took it?

How many business opportunities might someone take who is stuck in fear?  Probably zero.  In fear, everything looks like a bad idea.

We all do it all the time and because we all have these moments we start to think it's normal.  Well normal is screwed up!  I don't want normal!

Imagine a scenario in which you did not have to give in to fear.  You knew the secret weapon for dealing with it and when it came over you and tried to put blinders on you, you could tell it to scram.

If you think this scenario is impossible, I encourage you to get help.  There are many people who can support you in addressing this issue, including our team members.  You will need to deal with this issue before you will ever be able to be successful in business.  Business demands that you see outside your box.  That you can identify where there are needs and where you have talents that can meet the need.  If all you see is fear, you will miss countless opportunities.

But when you overcome fear...when you find the secret to peace...there are no limits to what you can do.
