FFS this comment resonates so deeply. I don't understand how to work directly with fear except for being completely occupied so as to make rumination impossible. Can you share any pointers?
- michael_leachim 8y agoSeveral things that I am working with now: 1) Doing what is difficult. (Started commenting on here, planning to share some of my work here and on Reddit). 2) Asking myself whether I am doing the right thing or avoiding it. (That is when you can spend 3 months in refactoring when you really should just make a landing and share the thing everywhere gathering feedback and iterating along the way) 3) Constant exposure. I am planning to take some work in sales (which I dread). That should help with breaking barriers. 4) Observing the mind. A form of mindfulness approach that warrants its own larger explanation. Now, I am nearly at the beginning of this journey, but I think I will be able to figure it all out. Hope this helps.
