Forget All The Reasons

Forget all the reasons why it won’t work and believe in the ONE reason why it will: think it, speak it, put the work in — unknown DA

“Self Doubt” – we all know it. It prevents us from going for what we really want, taking that leap of faith, being with someone we like, starting that business we always dreamt about or whatever else. The -IVE abyss of “What if it goes wrong” thoughts that take control of our minds in the moment of doubt can limit us from creating the life we truly want.

But why? Well, I have learnt, that psychologically in order to ensure survival, our brains are hardwired to protect us from painful experiences & it is a fact that humans will go to greater lengths to avoid pain than to obtain pleasure. When we are in the moment of self-doubt, thinking about all the possible ways it can go wrong & all the ways we are not good enough to do the thing we want to do & the failure that will follow, we start to link that activity with pain. So once the -IVE association is made, our brains force us to quit in order to protect us from that “perceived” pain.

Therefore in the moment of self-doubt, it’s important to accept that “going for it” is scary & the outcome is unpredictable, the future doesn’t exist, so even though in your mind it seems more as though the -IVE outcome is more likely, the probability is actually 50/50 & there is no way to know except for doing it.

So, if you have a dream & if you REALLY want something then it is worth fighting for. Literally take control of your MIND to STOP the -IVE thoughts that prevent you from building the life you want. As hard as it is to believe, being happy & successful is very possible, if only you’d just allow it…..

Make the decision & move with it: #goodluck🔥🔥🔥
