We use all kinds of language to make our fear of trying more acceptable: “I’m no good at this. That’s for other people. I’m an introvert, I’m not smart, that’s not a strength, that’s not who I am.”

Here’s the thing. All of the fear and hesitation we have around failure and risk taking is based on consequences that don’t pose a physical danger to us.

We live in a modern, relatively safe world where any attempts to redefine ourselves, put ourselves out there, or be fearless will not result in our death!

Fear is largely an expression of sensing your true value and wanting to express it and be rewarded for it, and the judges and naysayers and critics pushing back and saying “No, we’re not comfortable with that version of you eclipsing our own perceived limitations.”

The worst part? Most of those critics are in your head. Time to have your own back.

What kind of motivation dominates your thoughts in the morning? How will you set the tone of your day, your week, your month?

Notice how possibility and abundance feel? Open, alive, curious, fun?

Notice if you are shut down, withdrawn, afraid, resentful? Are you setting a tone of scarcity?

Question: Are you currently in a state of abundance or scarcity?
