A different part of our brains is activated when we think about what’s possible rather than what’s required.
I believe the same is true when we think about being courageous, rather than focusing on the fears that stop us.
You don’t hesitate all time. For example, you don’t hesitate when you pour a
cup of coffee in the
morning. You don’t hesitate when you put on your jeans. You don’t
hesitate when you turn on
the television. You don’t hesitate to call your best friend. You don’t think at all.
You just have the instinct to call your friend, and you pick up the phone, and you call
them. But when you hesitate just before making a sales call or texting someone back, it makes your brain think that something must be wrong. THE LONGER YOU THINK about that sales call, THE LESS LIKELY YOU'LL MAKE IT.
