What Is Your Deepest Fear?
When I first started my home based business, I would have said my deepest fear is “failure”, or “rejection”. I remember being so scared to pick up the phone to call someone. Then when the phone rang, I would hope no one would answer. I was shaking! 😯 When they did answer, I read my script with a shaky voice and I sounded like I was reading… because I Was!! 😕 Talk about fear! 😯 I kept on doing it, over and over and over, and guess what? I got better at it each time. What I didn’t realize then, is that “you make up in numbers what you lack in skill“, as my friend and mentor Jim Rohn used to say. As I got more skilled, my confidence went up and then I wasn’t scared of the phone anymore, in fact, I was excited to get on the phone each day.
