Fear is good. Like self-doubt, fear is an indicator. Fear tells us what we have to do. Remember our rule of thumb: the more scared we are of a work or calling, the more sure we can be that we have to do it.

Steven Pressfield,

Author of The War of Art

Introduction

The Forces Holding

You Back

I have learned over the years that when ones mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear.

Rosa Parks

I magine for a moment there is something you want so badly that it hurts to go without it. Maybe youve tried to grab that dream as it dangles in front of you, but it keeps escaping your grasp.

When people say take direct action and just do it , you find yourself too paralyzed to do anything. Instead, you find yourself reaching for a remote control or killing time by immersing yourself in things that entertain you.

As a result, youve settled for a life of good enough, and opted to live in fear: Fear of not doing what you want to do, fear of living without, and the fear of growing old and never taking a chance on your future.

Now, imagine that an invisible force is holding you back from having this one thing. It is so powerful that, no matter how hard you try to break free, it wont let you go.

That force is fear .

It is powerful, and for most people it is the single largest cause of defeat.

But, unlike most obstacles that are easy to identify, what keeps you scared is more difficult to see. We are blinded by the forces in our lives that trap us because we assume life is supposed to be this way.

When something is risky, we make excuses for why we shouldnt do it. Then when a good opportunity presents itself, we say, maybe next time . But when next time arrives, there is always another excuse.

Many of us have trained ourselves to avoid the scary stuff in life, and instead, we settle for what is easy and less risky. The fear of scarcity has taken over the beauty of abundance. The result is, you create a life where you are clinging to the things that dont matter when you should be letting go.

Why Do We Trap Ourselves?

We hold ourselves back for many reasons: fear of failure, not being able to measure up, or trying to avoid looking stupid. So instead of doing it scared we do nothing at all and life passes us by. Then one day you turn 50 years old. You realize you dont have much time left and youre stuck in a job, a relationship, or a situation that would have been different if you had confronted and acted on the fears that were shaping your life.

Well...

I have good news and bad news. The good news is, its never too late to start doing the work youve always wanted to do. The bad news is, those moments you missed can never be reclaimed. But dont worry about that now. We have this day and the rest of our lives, however long that may be, to make a difference, change our behavior, take action, and do the things weve always dreamed of.

From now on, you have two choices: you can either do it scared, or do nothing at all. One path can bring you everything youve ever wanted. The other will continue to bring you more of what youve always had.

You are being held back by something that is not beyond your control. It is the result of years of conditioning and old beliefs that feed into negative thoughts about who you really are. Youve been lying to yourself about how great you can be.

This doesnt have to be you anymore. We all have choices we can make in any given moment. When you think you have no choice, you are making a choice to believe that and in doing so, youre limiting your opportunities to taking the scraps left over by everyone else that got there first.
