If you’re fearful — whether of success or failure — you will find you’re spending most of your day spinning your wheels.

What can you do to put our finger on what  you’re afraid of? How can you move past fear toward achievement? Here are a few of my suggestions: Picture5-300x200

  • Refocus. Maybe you’re too busy selling and not serving your clients. Maybe you’re trying to be everything to everyone. Focus your efforts. It could be a feeling of overwhelm that is freezing you in your tracks.
  • Fear of the unknown will freeze you on the spot. Having a business plan and working that plan will help you move forward without fear.
  • Focus on your core competency and build a team of professionals to help you with what you’re not well-versed in.
  • Surround yourself with a support system of professionals. Join a mastermind group. Find a mentor.
  • Be a risk taker. Sometimes you just have to be willing to experiment and take a risk on having it not work out. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Managing and taking risks is part and parcel of being an entrepreneur.
