Cheers! A great quote I found while flipping through the 4-hour work week was “If want to double your success, simply double your rate or failure”, Thomas Watson said that.

I've almost trained myself to treat that fear or anxiety of trying something new as fuel to actually make it happen…Feeling a little fearful as I'm about to launch a new business or try something new is like a quasi-gauge for me; it lets me know I'm making the right amount of Forward Progress…

Great post Annie…It's actually got me so riled-up I might just write a follow-up post right now! Cheers!

I kind of think folks get in the habit of not only doing things because of their fear, but of simply being fearful in the first place. Accepting that it's an ok excuse. You know?

At times, when I get fearful for whatever reason, I do a little jedi mind trick on myself and instead of focusing on the big thing that has me concerned instead I start thinking of the 'next step' that will move me forward but doesnt feel as big and scary.

Thanks for sharing Annie!

Fear is only your own perception, your own boundary at this perticular point of time in your life. When you try to push your boundaries each day, you can accomplish the job in time. Just take steps that you are able to make, don't ask yourself to do something you cannot just to show you can do it. Take on your fear with a plan and prove the people wrong.

I took a deep breath and told myself, "This single conversation might be the one that is keeping you from your goals. GET OUT OF THE CAR!"<br><br>@Grant I love the "focus and confidence come in the form of action, not in the preparation." statement. By simply getting out of the car or picking up the phone your entire life could change, but you have to be willing to push on.<br><br>@Annie - Great stuff as always and man do you keep me motiviated!!!
