REMASTERED: Facing Entrepreneurial Fears, with Christy Wright (Business, Sales, Persistence, Boutique)

And that's true for anything that you're weak. I tell people again and again, in business, but also in leadership for your listeners that are working in a company, in a career, you are going to be the most successful in life, regardless of what type of work you do. You will be the most successful when you stay in your strengths.

And so how that plays out is you're going to be the most successful, but you're also going to have the most fun when you do what you're good at. So for all of the areas that you're weak, especially in business, just ask for help. Find people around you that can support you. My husband is incredible with details.

It's interesting because if fear can get so loud and terrify you with these possibilities of what will happen and then you stay stuck and you never do anything, then you continue to believe that story that you're telling yourself like, Oh, I couldn't do it because it was so big. It turns into this excuse that you justify being stuck.

But the truth is, and that's the reason I say, the antidote to fear is action because the best way to make that fear shut up is to do it. Then fear can't torment you with these terrifying possibilities. What will happen if you do it? Because you did it and you survived. And it's the best way to make fear stop taunting you is when you actually just step into it and do the thing anyway.

You can get more of anything in this life that you want, except time. You can earn more money. You can gain more relationships. You can find more stuff. But regardless of how much power or money or fame you have in your lifetime, you cannot have a single minute more than every other person has, which is exactly 24 hours in a day.
