Show Highlights:
In the mist of transition there is always one things that appears…fear pop up.
If fear is your primary though and driving force, trying to eliminate fear is not what you want to do.
Fear is a useful emotion, yet most of the time we are confused what to do with it.
Emotions are just information. Our brain take in all the information and then passes it through our beliefs, emotions, how we see the world. They are action signals, telling us what’s going on.
Fear is just a signaling device that is saying pay attention.
There are 3 different types of fear: imminent danger: mt lion, instinctual fear: when something happens at the point of change. What if fear: we make up stories what if xyz happened?
We are wired for balance, status quo. When we go through change are our senses come alert
Honor and listen to that instinctual fear. Our instinct tells us something is wrong, then we talk ourselves out of it.
The message kicks in before you can think about it. It’s instinctual like intuition.
95% of our communication is nonverbal, we can pick up clues.
I found if I’m arguing with myself its ego battling intuition and intuition is always right. Honor the instinct, knowing it’s not crazy.
Logic side of brain has command of language and the creative, intuitive side of the brain that knows, sees and feels, but doesn’t have the language.
What if fear is where we make up stories of what might happen? It’s true it may happen, but there are infinite possibilities. How do we use the information to get us to where we want to go?
People don’t want to feel fear, it’s uncomfortable. They try to distract themselves from fear, let me medicate it. Don’t try to be fearless, listen to what fear has to say.
The only message fear has is pay attention. The question arises, what do I have to pay attention too?
What is it that I am actually afraid of?
We often get paralyzed by some big blanket fear. Unless you identify what the fear is, this blanket fear is too big and too scary for you to do anything about it. It has a tendency to shut you down, paralyze you and you are stuck.
One of the behaviors that keep you stuck is focusing on the poor me story. To change it identify what the fears are, flip it and ask what do I want? Identify resources that will take you to where you want to go. How do I feel? What’s important to me, what’s behind it, why do I want it?
Something changed and we resist the change, we blame others and ourselves, there’s an element of grief in any transition. To get out of it we have to take responsibility for my part and what I’m going to do next.
Every moment is a point of choice. Start small no matter where you are. Turn fear into a guide post. I don’t want this.
If this is the biggest thing you fear, what are you going to do about it?
