Is FEAR blocking your potential?

by Andrew Bryant - Executive Coach, Author and Trainer of Neuro Semantics and NLP

"Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we might win, by fearing to attempt". - William Shakespeare

Fear takes many forms and can vary in intensity from a mild discomfort to a paralysing phobia. You may be surprised to realise that most people have some type of fear that is preventing them reaching their full potential in life or business.

Fear of... flying, public speaking, meeting people, commitment, success, failure, cold calling, criticism, ill health, death, closed places, confrontation, snakes, spiders…etc.

The Key to Success
is to realise that FEAR is an acronym for...
False Evidence Appearing Real.

NLP and Neuro Semantics teach us that we react not to reality itself but to our mental representation of reality. Our fear is a reaction to the movies we play in our mind about past and future events.

Earlier this year I was giving a training on presentation skills when one, otherwise successful bank manager told me she had cold sweats for three days before each presentation. I asked her what movie she played in her mind when she thought about a training - "Well first I see all the people staring at me without blinking and I see their faces getting bigger and closer to me and I hear a voice inside my head saying - you are going to freeze, you are going to stuff up". That certainly sounded like a horror movie to me, no wonder she is afraid to present.

If you change your mental movies you change your reactions. To do this you need to be able to step back from the movie and realise it isn't real. If you would like a full description of how to do this click here.
