What’s the Worst That Can Happen?
- What’s the Worst That Can Happen? Anne Bachrach 1:30
Today we are talking about tip #1 to help you get things done when you might be afraid of failure, which is to, Think “What’s the Worst That Can Happen”?
Fear is a natural response, but try to identify what it is that you really are afraid of anyway. Fear is usually the result of our mind creating hypothetical dramas that have no basis in reality. If you find yourself fearful of the outcome of an impending change, ask yourself what you're really afraid of. Ask yourself, ‘What’s the worst thing that can happen?’
It is good to remember that there is a solution to everything… and when you rationalize your fear, you can see that you are going to be just fine. You can just suck it up, and as Nike says, “Just Do It.” Do what you are afraid of doing and reap the benefits. You will quickly discover that the experience of change wasn’t worth all that Anxiety over the unknown. Each time you rationalize the fear, you will have greater courage to “Just Do It” in the future.
