b'Hi and welcome back to another Elevator Talk with Michelle. For the Time that is ours to share, I want to talk about how to do it afraid.\\n\\nHere are five techniques that will help you overcome fear in your daily life:\\n1. Start Small. Fear comes in many shapes and sizes. Facing it doesn\\u2019t have to be a grand gesture. No matter how large or small your fears may seem, scaling down to a more manageable size will be beneficial. Slowly step out of your comfort zone and begin moving towards your goal.\\n2. Have Faith. While achieving your goal may not happen on your preferred timetable, it is important to have faith that time will bring success. Trusting that achievement is not only possible, but probable will help soften your fears.\\n3. Write It Down. Writing in a journal is very helpful when trying to overcome your fears and to document how you feel as you are dealing with your fears.\\n4. Accept What Happens Or Doesn\\u2019t Happen. You must accept that you can\\u2019t force anything! The Dalai Lama said, \\u201cIf you have fear of some pain or suffering, you should examine whether there is anything you can do about it. If you can, there is no need to worry about it; if you cannot do anything, then there is also no need to worry.\\u201d\\n5. Let Go. Once we have accepted what may or may not develop, we need to detach ourselves from the outcome. Letting go of our fears allows us to focus more on the present moment and less on the fear itself.\\n\\n\\n--- \\n\\nSend in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michelle4466/message\\nSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michelle4466/support'
