Ten Ways to Overcome Self-Doubt & Fear
by Simma Lieberman

IF YOUR SELF-DOUBTS AND FEARS STOP YOU FROM GETTING THINGS DONE, HERE ARE SOME TECHNIQUES AND PROCESSES THAT CAN HELP YOU BREAK THROUGH THEM.

    1. Make a list of your fears. Only by admitting that they exist can you seek solutions.
    2. Write down how these fears affect your life.
    3. Become aware of the voices in your head and write down those negative messages.
    4. Start building a support system of friends and eliminate people from your life who foster feelings of negativity.
    5. Join a support group of people who have similar issues.
    6. Change each negative message to one that is affirming and constructive.
    7. Read books that help you feel better about yourself.
    8. Be aware of your past, and be willing to let go of it.
    9. List your goals and the actions you need to achieve them.
    10. Take one of those actions every day. Each time you do something that brings you closer to achieving your goals you will feel better about yourself.
    11. Share with the group what is your most deepest fear and how you plan to eliminate this fear.

My most deepest fear is that I will not accomplish my goals, dreams, or purpose in life. Which will have a big effect on my children and their lives. I will be very limited as to what I can and can't do. I will also feel as though I have not only failed myself but failed my children as well. I plan to eliminate this by facing my fears head on, trust God, and use resources.
