Hello Everyone & Welcome Back to the RealPositiveGirl Podcast!
Thank you so much for joining me again!
Happy Wednesday!
This week's theme for the podcast is: Being Brave
It's important we know that being brave is not pretending that fear doesn't exist, but that we can push past it & still conquer our goals & live our lives!
Join me in learning more about being brave this week!
Here are some notes from today's episode:
- Fear is one of the biggest reasons we don’t step out of our comfort zones. We can’t be brave & step into our confidence & courage if we are constantly hiding before fear.
- Let’s talk about some ways we can conquer fear & move-on from that being an excuse.
- Embrace your fear & put a name to it. Understand that your fear could actually help you identify what you think is standing in your way & what needs to be worked on to succeed. And it’s always a better choice to face your fear head on, rather than ignore it & let it control you for life.
- Get educated on your fears. Most of the time fear is derived from the unknown, uncertainty. Which means if you take the time to learn exactly why you are having the fears you have, what has caused those fears to bloom & what those fears can teach you about yourself will actually turn your fear into a helpful opportunity. Take some time to get educated on the fear so that the uncertainty goes away.
- Try to surround yourself with people that will push you positively. I believe it is important to have people in your inner circle that encourage you, pump you up & support you through everything. But it’s also important that those same people push you to do things you know & they know you can do, but you are too scared to push yourself to do. These people in your life come in clutch to add the pressure & help you step out of your comfort zone & go for it.
- What’s the worst that could happen? A lot of times we can make the fear & uncertainty bigger than it needs to be in our minds. Sometimes the best course of action to ask yourself what is the worst thing that could happen & even IF that still sounds not fun, recognize that after giving it some perspective, it’s a little bit smaller than it was & you can continue to do this until it’s small enough for you to not care as much & move past it.
- Do it a different way. If your fear has anything to do with failing previously, try to shake up your next approach a bit. Don’t do it the same way & figure out what didn’t go right the first time & use that info to execute a different plan of action.
- Stop choosing security over bravery. More often than not, we will put up with something, no matter how unhappy it makes us, just because it’s so much easier to keep doing the familiar than try something new. It’s important to start valuing courage over security because it’s much better to step out & try to do the things that will help you grow & succeed than to stay stuck & continue to cling to the things that make you feel safe, but stagnant.
