“Five Truths about Fear” is the best thing I’ve read so far in Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway by Susan Jeffers. I repeat these truths many times throughout the day to retrain my thought processes. Since I started doing this, I’ve felt much more confident and comfortable in every situation. I’m glad I started doing this and I plan to continue doing it since it’s helped me so much.
- The fear will never go away as long as I continue to grow.
- The only way to get rid of the fear of doing something is to go out and do it.
- The only way to feel better about myself is to go out… and do it.
- Not only am I going to experience fear whenever I’m on unfamiliar territory, so is everyone else.
- Pushing through fear is less frightening than living with the underlying fear that comes from a feeling of helplessness.
