I recently published a new post on my blog about overcoming fear and anxiety when it wants to stop you from bringing your plans to reality. Here is a summary.

Fear can limit your success.

Instead of taking chances, you stick to the status quo because it is safe.

When you are afraid to take your ideas to the next stage, you tell yourself that you need not do it because others have done something similar.
So what can you do?

Split Your Tasks into Small Volumes

Big ideas can scare. Break your big idea into small volumes and do them step by step. Simplify the process. Whatever your idea might be, every simple step is a chance to take another step towards achieving your goal.

Don’t Dwell on the Fear

Do not worry about what people will say about you or how success is impossible. You are not likely to succeed if you pollute your mind with these thoughts. Occupy your time by doing chores or other creative activities.

Recollect Moments of Courage and Success

Drown your fear by remembering things and periods when you were successful at something. Pull up those buried reminiscences of happiness and use it to drive an urge for accomplishing your goals.

Speak to a Trusted Friend or Family

Find a friend, mentor or family member who can encourage you after discussing your fears with them. A good support system can help you when anxiety cripples your ability to move forward.

Stay Away From Negative Influences

Negative influences come in different forms, from obnoxious friends to nosey colleagues, nasty siblings to overbearing church members, who use their words and actions to undermine you. Some steps you can take include paying less attention to them, walking away and avoiding an argument.

Stop Seeing Failure as the Only Outcome

Ask yourself: what’s the worst that could happen? Visualize all outcomes, accept it and take a step forward. Failure teaches you how to avoid a mistake. If you envision it as a challenging part of a process and not the outcome, you realize there is nothing to fear.

There are opportunities to succeed, and your ideas are the golden tickets to this success. Fear cannot be an obstacle.

It’s time to win.
