Do you remember paper fortune tellers from when you were younger?
My friends and I used to make them – all the time! They were SO much fun!!
If only making decisions in REAL life and business could be this easy
Unfortunately, there’s only one way to feel confident about what the future holds for us… and that is to act on decisions now – today – that support a future we want to experience.
So… how do you make BIG decisions when fear has you shaking in your booties?
The first step is to recognize that fear isn’t always a stop sign.
There is a difference between fear that stems from true danger and fear that stems from stepping beyond your comfort zone.
Here’s my best advice if fear is keeping you from making and acting on a big decision:
• Remember, fear isn’t always a stop sign.
• Seek the truth. (YOUR truth)
• Breath.
• Get clear about the fear. Feel it then face it.
• Be honest and compassionate with yourself. A massive degree of honesty is required. Don’t beat yourself up for feeling scared.
• Listen for your authentic voice amidst the mind chatter. It is there. You already know the answers.
• Decide and take action.
• Seek Inspiration. (Need a little extra motivation? Watch the Dare Change Video)
“I have accepted fear as a part of life – specifically the fear of change…. I have gone ahead despite the pounding in the heart that says: turn back.” ~Erica Jong

Anytime I do something new or challenging it scares the $&^* out of me. The next time is easier. I listen to my intuition even though I am scared I ask myself is it an excited scared from there I make a decision to procede?
