I'm Stuck in Life What Should I Do ~ Leila Hormozi
Leila HormoziHost
Fear is an emotion caused by the thought that something is a danger, a threat, or possibly going to be able to harm us.
Every time that I notice something pops up in my head and I'm like, Ooh, that's a scary thought.
The reason that fear is such a tricky thing is because the more we try to avoid fear, which is the natural inclination of humans, the greater the fear becomes.
It's literally natural consequence of teaching ourselves that the more we avoid something, it's telling the brain that thing is a threat.
I have just learned tactics and coping mechanisms to deal with fear, to manage fear.
to befriend fear so that it's not so difficult and I can move forward in my life while still being brave.
The feelings that you're experiencing that are keeping you from moving forward in life and keep you feeling stuck are completely normal.
And the better we get understanding the brain and learning how to manage it and cope with these feelings, the better we will move forward in life.
The biggest thing I want to tell you is that if you're feeling scared and because of that, you feel stuck in life, understand that our brains are wired for survival, not success.
