Is doing it right stopping you from doing it?

Is trying to do it 'just right' getting in the way of actually doing it?

How often do you get stuck in not starting, or not finishing, something because it doesn’t seem ‘just right’?

Video is a good example. Many people don’t do videos for fear of judgement, and yet my experience has been that the only person judging you is you. People love authenticity and anything that shows you’re a genuine, ordinary person and not a perfect robot, attracts them to you.

Very often too, you’re the only person who notices your nervousness. Some years ago I was interviewed for a short insert in a TV programme. I was very nervous. Watching the slot when it aired I was embarrassed that my nervousness was so obvious, yet my family didn’t notice it at all - so other people probably didn’t either. Become more accommodating of yourself.

You see, when you stop being so self-critical, you also stop being so nervous! This applies to anything, not just videos or public speaking. When you start something that you’re anxious about, focus on why this is important to you (having fun is a good reason) and then separate yourself from your inner critic.

You can talk back to your inner critic and teach it to keep you safe by encouraging you instead of putting you down. To find out how, download my ebook Turn Your Inner Critic into a Supportive Fan.

And connect with your enthusiasm! When you speak and take action from your heart, you light up and forget to be nervous! And your passion holds your audience’s attention.

Be kind to yourself! Perfection doesn't exist.

If your inner voice is putting you down and undermining your confidence, Turn your Inner Critic into a Supportive Voice. Take back control of your confidence with this easy technique and build calm self-assurance!

The importance of mindset is huge because what you think is what you become and achieve. Having transformed my life by transforming my perception of myself and what I can achieve, including becoming comfortable on video, I understand this profoundly.

That's why I'm excited to offer a free 30 minute online consultation to my subscribers. Whether you're struggling with a particular challenge or want to take your business to the next level by increasing your visibility, this consultation is a great opportunity to gain valuable insights and guidance.

Prepare for your consultation to gain the maximum benefit by:

• Identifying what you want to discuss with me. This could be a challenge you face, a goal you're struggling to reach, a boost of confidence you need, a habit (of behaviour or thought) you'd like to change, etc.
• Knowing what you'd like to achieve. If you know what you want to achieve, it will be easier for us to discuss how you can do that. By sharing your experiences and goals with me, we can work together to find a way forward for you.
• Listing the questions you'd like me to answer so you can get the most out of our time together. By being prepared, you'll get more value from our session.

About Marion Nixon

I inspire introvert women entrepreneurs who want more visibility and know doing videos will attract and engage more clients, to ditch self-doubt and anxiety, light their inner fire, and become as comfortable on video as chatting to a friend over coffee.

My life-long desire to enable women to live their dreams has led me on a journey of self-discovery, overcoming self-doubt and a host of limiting beliefs resulting from Childhood Emotional Neglect. To my own experience and training in personal transformation work I have added the knowledge and wisdom of twenty plus years in complementary health. This has given me a deep understanding of how you can use your body and mind to create and live Your life Your way.

Contact me when you're ready to ditch doubt and turn up the heat of your inner fire!
