What if nerves are the sign of something else?

Fear is such a powerful force, it can make you feel extremely nervous.
And nerves can be paralysing.
Nerves can stop you from:
- Embracing opportunities,
- Performing at your best,
- Reaching out to clients,
- Following your dreams,
- Living true to your values, and
- Making important changes.
Nerves will stop you from making changes that could transform your entire life and subsequently your levels of fulfilment and happiness. Changes that, ultimately, would enable you to unlock your potential.
?? Are nerves holding you back?
If they are, let me reassure you, you are not alone. Fear and nerves hold all of us back. The impact of that can be HUGE!
And they can, and often do, lead to real regrets.
But here's a thought: What if you could reframe your feeling of nerves?
?? What if you could see your nerves as a sign of excitement?
I remember feeling extremely nervous when I was about to give a talk to a large audience. Public speaking is something that I'm sure many can relate to.
My stomach was churning. My hands were shaking. My voice was drying up.
But then I remembered this wonderful pearl of wisdom: What if my nerves could be a sign of excitement, instead?
It was such a simple shift and yet the impact was profound. With this new insight, sure enough, I felt a surge of excitement!
I was suddenly ready – "Bring it on!"
I knew I was going to make an impact, the information I was sharing was undoubtedly valuable.
Think about where in your life nerves might be the thing holding you back.
Please stop for a minute and shift your perspective on that.
?? What if that feeling was excitement instead, from this moment forward? Wouldn't that just be amazing? Really think about it...
- How would you show up?
- What would you do?
- How would this shift change your results?
A mere shift of perspective is powerful.
So, when you feel those nerves in the pit of your stomach, when your hands are shaking, and you feel your legs are going to give way...
Shift your thoughts and say, "I'm excited. Bring it on!"
