Transform your ‘what if’s’ – most of our fears come from thoughts of what ‘might’ happen. We often hold ourselves back and let anxiety take over when we let the ‘what if’s’ take over. ‘What if this happens?’ ‘What if this doesn’t happen?’ ‘What if I’m not good/smart enough?’ ‘What if I can’t do it?’ ‘What if I fail?’
I’m sure you’ve had these thoughts running through your mind many times. If you’re not careful they can take over until you find yourself consumed by fear and anxiety.
When the ‘what if’s’ show up, I like to turn them around by playing what I call the ‘what if game.’ It simply means that you turn your what if’s around like this:
What if I couldn’t fail?
What if I have all the skills, energy, talent, ability that I need?
What if people love what I’m doing?
What if it works out exactly as I want it to – or even better?
What if I’m good enough in every way?
You get the idea. When you turn your what if’s around in this way you will feel re-energized. It will help you do the things you are most afraid of doing. What if that’s all you need to do?
