Ask Me Anything - May 2011

Great Q&A on how to finish, how to stop being hard on yourself, how to stop second guessing yourself, and figuring out fear of failure or fear of success, among other things.  Excerpts of questions below:

  1. I've been a MK consultant for 4 years and really want to get to director, but can't seem to get into and finish DIQ.  Same is true for other goals in my life, like I lost 91 pounds but still haven't gotten to the weight I want.  How can I stay motivated and push through my goals and be a finisher?!?
     
  2. I continually second guess myself.  For example, I won money bowling and start thinking what if I tried harder?  Maybe I could have won more.  How can I stop being so hard on myself and start enjoying the moment?
     
  3. None of my consultants are committed to doing anything.  If my unit is going to grow, I guess it's up to me.  I have goals and need help with th, the step by step, even though I'm doing so much.  Still, I'm not getting the results I want.  Do I need an attitude adjustment?
     
  4. I'm in a Biz to Biz networking group and have been invited to help with an event to grow a group in another area.  I know if I go I can meet other photographers and florists that can potentially help me build my business, but as of yet I've not been able to connect with those outside my area to do facials because of the distance.  If I decide not to go, am I missing out on an opportunity?
     
  5. Even if you took away my fear of rejection and sounding silly, I still wouldn't make phone calls for my business.  Deep down, I am stopping myself because if they say yes, I don't want to go out and do the party.  How do I know if what is holding me back is not only fear of rejection, but also fear of success?  OR, how do I know if it's neither, and if direct sales is just not what I enjoy doing and therefore, not for me?
     
  6. How do I distinguish between healthy fear and unhealthy fear?
     
  7. How does one who has been wired to think and feel a certain way change that pattern?  "Just doing it" isn't enough when you've been programmed naturally think a certain way.
     
  8. How do you get past the numb feeling?  I feel like I am just going through the motions sometimes without any feelings.  I am questioning and doubting myself.  I know the reason I was put on Earth is to support and inspire others to reach their dreams and be happy, but I feel like a fraud because I do not feel I am allowing myself to dream, being afraid to put myself out there and live up to my full potential or purpose.
     
  9. What do you recommend we do when we are still stuck?
