100 Things I Fear: success is a choice

80. {12/10/09} Oh I hosted the first Simply Fearless Fempreneur Brainstorming Party tonight!  It was so much fun and turnout was great.  One thing that totally took me by surprise was how I was beating myself up with criticism during the event.  I found myself thinking things like:

“People aren’t getting enough out of their brainstorming sessions.”

“I should have given my 30 second introduction.”

“I should have allowed everyone to introduce themselves.”

“Why didn’t I do a centering exercise at the beginning?”

Basically, all of these thoughts were fear telling me I’m not good enough.  But, the truth is…the event was a smashing success!  In fact, I received so many emails afterwards telling me how empowering and awesome it was.  So I choose to focus on the success and make any necessary adjustments for the next one.

    Way to go. Anything to get that negative nelly voice in our heads to sit down and shut up! Glad to hear it was fun and a success.

    Thanks Heidi! I've actually started to look at that “negative nelly voice” in my head as very useful tool. It shows me where I'm at and also where I need to direct some love and attention. Of course, then it can be on its way!
