Do What Scares You
Try this. Amazing results are possible! I think this admonition is more compelling than many of the standard motivational phrases. I was just thinking of doing something I don't normally do and this adage is exactly correct to get me out of my box.
For those of us floating around, knowing what must be done next, and know this move is not typical, not a routine task but one that will propel you forward, you should DO WHAT SCARES YOU NOW!
Thanks very much, Lou!
Motivational Power Quote
Do What Scares You
"Do one thing everyday
that scares you."
Eleanor Roosevelt, former First Lady
As I see it. . . . . . . .
Do what scares you.
When we're scare it creates fear, and that fear paralyzes us and keep will us awake at night worrying. Fear creates anxiety and affects our ability to think effectively and take action.
Commit to do one thing everyday that scares you. Do the things until you have successfully removed them and the fear.
Once removed you will feel that a weight has been removed from your shoulder and you will find yourself becoming more productive.
