However, I just didn’t feel like I was coming across properly. I did my best, but I left the meeting feeling kind of down. It might be because my message and my reason, as to why they should hire me, didn\u2019t come across clearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, normally I would have been hitting myself in the head for a day or two because I hadn’t done a great job. I probably wouldn’t be the one running their brand strategy and turning them into the most admirable company in their field. But this time I opened my notebook and wrote down a ‘to-do’: plan more basic content around my work for newbies’. I turned the fear of being misunderstood into an actionable to-do that I am already working around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After my illness, and having looked the worst of fear in the eyes and lived with it every day (yes, the fear of dying far too soon). I’ve changed my looks on fear. I could go into the wildest of details, but believe me, having battled a life-threatening illness will make you change your views on pretty much anything. You have to hope for the best and celebrate the small things you can do today that you haven’t been able to do yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For me, every full breath of air is a winning-streak. I have gotten a brand new perspective on how I run my business and how I make my money. And I have promised to treat my bad-ass self better and more lovingly. Getting myself caught in being misunderstood is not something I want to be afraid of anymore. It will be something I create new cool initiatives around to prevent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you turn your fear into actionable items then it will become manageable. If you turn your fear into something, where you have a ton of backup, then at some point it’s not fear anymore. That’s how you’re managing fear in your business.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have been practicing a thing lately in Henriette Weber Inc\u2026 Fear.
