How many times has the fear of what might happen prevented you from taking action on something you wanted to do?
Maybe you wanted to ask for something, ask someone out, or quit your job …
In these situations, the mind goes into self-protection mode and turns into an excuse-generating machine:
- “I might get rejected.”
- “I might fall behind and not be able to catch up.”
- “It probably wouldn’t be that great. I should just keep doing what I’m doing.”
When Should I use Fear-Setting?Fear-Setting is helpful in a number of settings, including:
- When making decisions about what to do next…In both business and personal life, fear-setting helps you see the reality of the situation more clearly to make the best decision. (e.g. You’re thinking about taking a leap like quitting your job, ending a relationship, or moving to a new place.)
- When you already know what you’re going to do but it’s stressing you out…Fear-setting helps you create a sense of comfort and confidence with impending changes. (e.g. You already know you’re going to graduate school in a few months, but have fears and anxieties about how it will go.)
Look at your wellness Wheel and for each dimension, describe the "worst case scenario" or fear that stops you from moving your dimension to the outside edge.
