Sometimes it helps to think of fear as an actual person and to take it from there. Here are SOME POINTERS to get you started.
- START STRONG. Opening line: Dear Fear, It’s Over.
- BE SPECIFIC. It’s important that you are clear about how fear has held you back and what it cost you. Did you ever walk away from a dream or idea because of fear? Is there a dream you have now, that fear is holding you back from pursuing?
- BE HOPEFUL AND FORWARD THINKING. What do you stand to gain now that you’re breaking up with fear? What actions and chances will you take?
