100 Things I Fear: success is a choice

Posted at 9:12 am under 100 Things I Fear, Life Coaching, Solopreneurs & Blogging

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!
