#185: Moving Through Doubt

In this Friday fact episode, we are talking about the concept of doubt and how much we let doubt stop us from moving forward on our goals.  We give doubt so much power instead of just calling it emotion and not giving it so much energy.  The opposite of doubt is confidence and we can only increase our confidence by doing.  We either feed the fear and doubt or we feed the faith that we can move forward. Here are a few tips to move through the feelings of doubt.

In this episode, we discuss:

1. Living in doubt means that you are questioning all of your possibilities for the future, and those are all the things that you cannot control.
2. Look back to all of the things you have overcome or achieved. Where can you use any contrary evidence to prove that your beliefs are not accurate and that your doubt doesn’t serve a purpose?
3. Ask different questions. Don’t train your brain for all of the what if’s or what could go wrong.  Instead, ask how does it get any better than this? Ask questions that focus on your strengths and not your weaknesses.
4. I love this quote by Hanoch McCarty, “It is not who you are that holds you back, it is who you think you are not.”
5. Remember you choose what you feel. You can feel doubt or believe in your future self.
