This might surprise you, but... This is the reason for the struggle with burnout. 👇
Avoiding looking fear in the eyes.
What does it look like for you? 🤓
1. Afraid of starting a creative business or owning a studio,
So, draining your energy in a job that doesn't bring complete satisfaction.
2. Feeling like you fail,
So, not speaking up in meetings or sharing your ideas.
3. Thinking: I'm not good enough, experienced enough, skilful enough,
So, staying unhappy and not asking for a promotion.
4. Thinking that everywhere is the same,
So, feeling hopeless about looking for another job.
5. Afraid of changes during recession,
So, not preparing yourself for the career shift you dream about.
Fear has many faces and can appear in your life in many ways.
If you are not looking at them, it drains your energy and that can lead to burnout.
But what if you treat your fear as a signpost that shows you the exact direction on your career road? 🛣
And what if, eventually, taking that road will bring you the most powerful performance, a passionate career, and a fulfilling lifestyle? 💃
Would you take that road in no time?
I learnt for myself that the moment I started treating my fears as a signpost.
I got clarity, felt in control, and gained energy and passion for my work.
If you try to avoid your fear and not look into its eyes,
I want to show you a quick exercise that can help to change that and start creating your career roadmap. 🗺
🖌 Take 5 min to journal about: 🖌
If I follow my fear, what is the direction that it shows me?
What is the fearful story I tell myself about it that I believe?
Is that story real, and do I know for sure, am I 100% certain that it is true?
What is one thing that I can do today to be closer to what I really want?
Then, notice if this shifts your energy and brings more clarity.
