I know that I am on the brink of BIG change in my life when I feel fear. Not the kind of fear you feel when you see a dangerous person in a dark alley, I'm talking about the kind of fear that only BIG change can bring.
For me, when opportunity comes, I usually want to hide in my bed or under something. I want to retreat and not go out into the world. It is EXACTLY moments like this that I know I must keep going.
What's funny is that in moments like this in the past, when I wanted to retreat, I would retreat. But what's ironic and funny about that is when we don't act because we are afraid, we stay stuck in the thing we're afraid of.
Does that make sense?
Not acting because we are afraid is what keeps us afraid and typically not acting; because we are afraid is what MANIFESTS the outcomes we are afraid of.
It's totally ironic how that works, isn't it?
So, what we must do is SLOWLY start to prove our fear wrong. And RIGHT before any major breakthrough is when fear is at its greatest. This is a pattern I see ALL the time in my life, especially recently because I've had to step out into a lot of unknowns lately. And what's cool is that on the other end, I always come through the other side OK. So my NEW practice is to apply the feeling of being OK BEFORE I step into what I'm afraid of, and hold that mindset as I'm going through the fear.
It's a powerful practice!
So, what areas of your life are you afraid to embrace? What action are you not taking out of fear? Can you see that you are holding your own expansion back by NOT taking action? As always, the action happens over on the BLOG. Head on over there and leave a comment on my blog "A game changing practice to harness fear into power!" and join in the conversation! The TDL Community thrives in the comments and it's a GREAT place to get support!
