#010 - Telling Fear to F*** Off...
Manage episode 171434636 series 1334915
What are you afraid of? What keeps you awake at night?
Public speaking? Picking up the phone?
Closing a sale? Hiring staff? Firing staff?
Doing the accounts? Dealing with technology?
Running out of money? Clowns?
Whatever it is, we've got a tactic to help you conquer your fears. It involves a hula hoop, eating beans on toast, and jumping out of an aeroplane at 15,000 feet. (thankfully WITH a parachute!)
But if the thought of skydiving gets you trembling with fear, then we've got quite a few more sedate methods that you could implement in your life (or your small business) to increase your self confidence and expand your comfort zone.
We tell you (AGAIN!) why reading the newspapers will only serve to make you more scared (that's their job!), and we tell you why talking to random strangers in the street (or at the gym like John does!) can help you build your self confidence, and be good for your business.
