In Episode #010 Get Out of Your Head and Into Your Heart, We Explore Fear of failure, the Limbic System, Limiting Beliefs, and How the Only True Barriers in life are the ones we erect ourselves. Then we do a short, guided meditation to get out of our heads and into our hearts. It's time to accept our fears, learn what it means to live without fear and make the sound of who we really are!
-Michael Jordan
“Fear is the primary color of the amateur’s interior world. Fear of failure, fear of success, fear of looking foolish, fear of under-achieving, and fear of over-achieving, fear of poverty, fear of loneliness, and fear of death. But mostly what we all fear as amateurs is being excluded from the tribe, i.e., the gang, the posse, the mother and father, family, nation, race, and religion. The amateur fears that if he turns pro and lives out his calling, he will have to live up to who he really is and what he is truly capable of. The amateur is terrified that if the tribe should discover who he really is, he will be kicked out into the cold and die.” - Steven Pressfield
That gang or posse that we imagine is sustaining us by the bonds we share is in fact a conglomeration of individuals who are just as fucked up as we are and just as terrifeid. Each individual is so caught up in his own bullshit that he doesn’t have two seconds to worry about yours or mine, or to reject or diminish us because of it.
When we truly understand that the tribe doesn’t give a damn, we’re free. There is no tribe, and there never was.
Our lives are entirely up to us.” -Steven Pressfield
