Working with fears

I realized that there are a lot of things which I want to accomplish but I don't take action and I believe you do too. Why? Procrastination and Laziness aside, what's left is nothing but Fear.

It's normal to feel fear whenever we start to do something beyond our comfort zone, it's a natural emotion to protect ourselves. But what this protection takes away, is the chance and opportunity we had given ourselves to try. We start to think, what if I fail? What if I can't make it? What if I lose the deal? What if he/she rejects me? and the list of negative preconceived outcomes goes on and on.
What I realized is that in order to allow or to give myself a chance to do whatever I want to do, is just by changing the way I talk to myself. When I feel that fear or laziness, I would ask myself, What if I succeed? What if I become rich? What if I manage to help other people?

Try it out! when you ask yourself positive questions, you'll start picturing yourself being successful, getting that dream car, got married to your loved one, etc.

But of course, why do we question ourselves negatively since we knew we could do it?
Fear is present for a purpose, it tells us that we're not fully prepared to do what we wanted to do. If you have a fear of doing sales, it means that you have to learn more selling techniques, skills in persuasion, how to build rapport, etc.

Work with your fears, but don't let it paralyze you!
