Fear is a powerful motivator because it makes us uncomfortable and we want to move away from that discomfort. Fear is a primal instinct that keeps us alive. It motivates us to act and move closer to our comfort zone. Fear is often used in organizations and interpersonal relationships to motivate people to work and change. For example, a parent might use fear to get their child to do or stop doing something immediately. Fear can be effective at changing intentions and behavior, especially when the behavior provides a solution to the threat. However, fear can have long lasting negative effects that outweigh the motivation it produces. Here are some ways to use fear to your advantage: * Remind yourself who you don't want to be. * Make commitments and be accountable to them. * Remind yourself that most of the time it's never as scary as you imagined. #SuccessUnleashed #EmpowermentJourney #InspirationRevolution #work #growth #opportunities #collaboration #inspiration #success #power #futureleaders #kindness #future #work
