Fear magnifies when we're alone. Your thoughts can be the biggest hater (and the loudest negative voice) when you're by yourself.
So tap into your support system. Surround yourself with the people who will help you feel fearless and support you conquering your fears. Enjoy the love.

#477: What's the Worst That Could Happen? (Friday, February 19)
One of the best ways to conquer a fear is to reality check it. Ask yourself "What's the worst that could happen?" and answer the question.
Think of the most horrible possible outcome of trying to conquer your fear. What's the likelihood of the worst-case scenario happening? Chances are, it's probably very small - probably closer to 0% than 100%.
What's worse: not conquering your fear OR working to conquer your fear knowing that the worst possible outcome is highly unlikely?

Sometimes we're so afraid of disappointing those we love, that we sometimes put our needs on the back burner.
We worry about the significant other, the parents, the kids, the boss, the friend, the sibling...but what about YOU?
Can you live with disappointing yourself in order to please others?

#475: Analysis Paralysis (Friday, February 5)
Do you overanalyze situations? Do you go back and forth between decisions, unable to make a choice? You might have a case of analysis paralysis.
Many people suffer from analysis paralysis - afraid to make the wrong decision, so they overthink and analyze and hypothesize until they've missed the window to make a choice.
Analysis paralysis is a lack of trust in yourself. In your ability to follow your intuition and make a decision. So don't be afraid to choose incorrectly - just make a decision and trust your gut.
