Thinking will not overcome fear but action will. W. Clement Stone

Fear has been the topic of conversation today – as I’ve discussed shared spaces with potential clients. Having a private office space to use for a month, a week or a day seems to rattle some small business people.  Will I have enough business?  Can I really afford it? Is this going to work?

A recent conversation with an awesome person.

C: “I’ll schedule a time to use the space, as soon as, there are people who will commit to coming to my event”. (FYI –  the space is free for this person to use)

LRF: “What are you doing about getting people to your event?”

C: “I talk to people but they won’t commit. Maybe I should ask ….?”

LRF: Does your website have a sign up form for people to receive emails from you letting them know about your event?

C: No

LRF:  How are you finding new people?

The conversation goes on

C:”I need to get rid of the fear.

LRF Fear paralyzes us- we have no movement forward or back. We sit and wait, and wait.

20 years goes by – we’ve lost the window of opportunity, energy and youth..

As W. Clement Stone said “Thinking will not overcome fear but action will.”
