Hey guys

I want to have a online bussines, by doing so i would be putting my self out there making videos for the public to see , everyone i know will see etc. I have this fear im not sure what the fear is off exactly, weather its people's opinions or what. But i cant let this stop me from pursuing my goals.

Any1 else have this issue? Is this normal and we must act despite feeling like this ?

Its so silly ive let it stop me for years.

Any tips with this ? Should i just stop been a pu#sy and have a go ? I dont want to waste anymore time.

Your mind seeks comfort. Doing something new like putting yourself out there is going out of your comfort zone and your mind(fearing for your survival) will try to conjure up ways to stop you from proceeding.

It’s totally normal. It’s why most people don’t dare to try. Just replace it being “scary” with being “exciting” and remember it’s a lot better to say “oh well” than “what if” and also remember you’ll only ever be criticized by people doing less than you, and never by people doing more than you.
