What To Do With Fear In Your Gut…

View Comments

Have you ever experienced that feeling where you know your supposed to perform and you get so excited/nervous that you screw everything up?

That’s the type of feeling that overcomes many people in high pressure situations. They get so consumed with the thoughts of other people that they forget what they’re here to do in the first place.

“These people also find ways to subconsciously sabotage their own success.”

They do this by thinking so many negative thoughts that it actually influences the outcomes of their actions and decisions.

Do you think if James Bond were a real secret agent the thought going through his head before he jumped off a building would be “I dunno if this parachute is gonna work because hundreds of people die parachuting every single year?” or “Driving over the speed limit is breaking the law, I hope I don’t get a ticket.”

No you wouldn’t

And that’s because when you are doing something of such precision you can’t cloud your crystal clear action with dirty thoughts. That just seems to tamper with the naturally balance of things.

When you execute a highly precise maneuver you need to KNOW you’re going to pull it off. Bottom line. If there is any lack, and I mean ANY LACK of commitment on your end or in the back of your mind then you’re going to mess up.

It’s really that simple. Or is it that complicated?

It depends on how you look at it. And that’s all based on your perception. If you perceive fear as a obsticle then it’s complicated. If you picture fear as food it’s really that simple.

How do you want to perceive it?

Better yet, since most people face this type of inner demon how do you flip the script?

How To Feed Off Your Fear

You need to do exactly that, use your fear as fuel. When you body enters that physical state you’ve got all kinds of awesome natural drugs pumping through your veins like adrenaline. This puts you into fight or flight mode. At this point you have to do just that, fight or flight.

Choose to whoop some ass or choose to flee like a dog.

If you let the fear get the best of you then you’re going to fail. BUT…

If you use that fear as a motivator, as a way to fuel your mission then you’re going to be able to do anything.

You see, when your body gets in that mode. It’s know as the zone, some call it The Now, some might even call it Zen. But no matter what it is just know that this is the place you need to come from when creating a life for yourself.

I use it in almost every aspect possible. I use in skateboarding, I use it in business, I use it in everyday life.

Live For The Moment

All the FUN is happening right now. You don’t want to miss out on life. If you’re always concentrating on you future and your past, you MISSING OUT on life going on around you right now!

Everyone who is “doing it big” right now is living life RIGHT NOW.

Whether is big business, day to day life, or living your passion life’s not gonna wait for you. You’ve got to take an unpredictable yet consistent approach because life gets boring if it’s always the same, just over-deliver when you say you’re gonna follow through.

Now take this knowledge and apply it to YOUR life. Create what you want in life. Implement everything and don’t even stop to look back until you are where you want to be. The past doesn’t matter, the future doesn’t matter, only the moment matters.

Live it to the fullest,
