Capitalizing on the gifts that fear brings us
CAPITALIZING ON THE GIFTS THAT FEAR BRINGS US Do you have a mission or vision of the way your world could look that scares you? I’ve been on vacation in Sri Lanka for the past week which has given me a chance to see my business and my impact from a higher / big picture vantage point. Between the waterfalls, hikes, tea factories, and beaches, my mind has been drifting to the sheer size of the mission we stand for at Empjoyment: to bring together a truly inclusive and empowered world. It’s that last word “ world” that has been bringing up a sense of fear for me. As I travel more and more, I’m finding out just how nuanced the challenges to true inclusion are in different countries, communities, and ways of work. If I had to dive deeper on this particular fear, it’s the fear that I’m being naive around how the world works. It’s the fear that I’ll be utterly unsuccessful and a failure because I tried to “boil the ocean”. It’s the fear that if I fail, I’ll be reinforcing the more restricting belief that the path to success is in conformity and marginally improving the status quo rather than being able to set my own unique path - essentially one of core principles I operate from. And a fear of wasting my potential by pursuing a unobtainable ideal. From these fears came both a revelation and a reminder of something I once knew but forgot. Today’s Fear Less February video shares my journey to find the gift amongst the fears and invites you into a conversation to explore and share hidden gifts for you as well.

A subtle reminder that I stand for something real.
