A close friend of fear is doubt, self-doubt. Second-guessing yourself all the time will do little to move the ball down the field towards a goal, any goal. It can be overcome. Do it in little steps. Think of the smallest accomplishment as a step in the right direction. I got up, got ready and went to work. Not a huge deal. But I did it! Build on that. Enough small accomplishments can lay a foundation for making the bigger stuff happen.
Another key part is simply feeling good. If I'm not feeling well and or hurting that simple goal of going to work is going to be much harder. I think it all kind of starts from with in. Feeling good about myself, taking care of my self and staying healthy are essential to getting anything done or helping others.
Speaking of helping others, that's also a great way to make myself feel better. If I'm having a bad day, getting someone else to smile or feel better turns my day around in a snap. Try it. It will work. And no, it does not require moving mountains, a simple complement will do. You can never go wrong letting other people know they are cared about and valued.
Put away the fear and doubt stuff. The weather is getting nice. Get out there and get to it!
