Fear in the Workplace
Fear is only as deep as the mind allows.
— Japanese Proverb
The workplace is a fertile field for all kinds of fears to show up. And it’s
all about how we approach fear, respond to it, learn from it, and then
pivot away from it. Those who know the secret—that if you change
your mind, you can change your life—are those who are able to break
through barriers, be extremely productive, and enjoy healthier relation-
ships with their coworkers.
Today I want you to think about your relationship to work. Most
of us spend a huge chunk of each week at our jobs. If we are fortunate
to own our own businesses, we might actually end up spending more
time working. Perhaps we are so focused on reaching our goals that
we neglect our health and other relationships. If we work from a place
of fear and anxiety, stress will be the result and other areas of our lives
will suffer.
So dealing with how we approach work is key. Our success depends
on it!
