09 Jul Susan’s Sound Advice #600
Anxiety is a master at convincing us to run away from our fears. It’s like a magnet, the closer we get to moving forward, . the more it draws us back. No one wants to feel discomfort. We don’t want to sweat, panic, feel shortness of breath, make a fool of ourselves or fail. It’s so much easier to hide behind feelings of worry, fear and anxiety. Today should be the day that you change your directionand instead of running away from your fears and the uncomfortable sensations…try facing them head-on! Forget the “what if”s”. Anxiety is also a master at distraction. It will make you shift your focus from the benefits of moving forward to the risks. And…it will make it look like a true nightmare. Sure, there is always some degree of risk with anything. The key is learning to analyze the risks in a realistic way to come to a rational conclusion. Feel the fear…and do it anyway! Anxiety gains nourishment from uncertainty. The more you are afraid to move forward the more the fear and anxiety grow, and the harder it will get to move forward. When you take action, even though afraid, you take that power away from the anxiety. The impact it has on your life becomes minimized. You finally realize that anxiety has been exaggerating the consequences and inflating the risks. You are finally in control. Action brings freedom from fear…it’s that simple! #dailyinspiration #susankorwin #lifecoach #simplestridestowardpositi vechange #anxietykillsjoy
