FUDs
FUDs is a an acronym for:
Fear
Uncertainty
Doubt
These are the three fundamental factors that will kill any dream or aspiration that you want to achieve.
FEAR:
Fear is a primal instinct that is engrained in us that causes us to fight, take flight (run away) or freeze. Whilst it can be used as a motivator to achieve objectives by taking the fight approach more often than not this only comes out when a life threatening situation presents itself. Fear is something that humans have evolved with to help survive in a dangerous world. The key to overcoming fear is to recognise it, rationally think about what is causing the fear (is you life actually in danger?) then take action.
The best way to overcome fear is by taking action. By taking action, you are helping to eliminate the fear by subconsciously proving to yourself that you are able to overcome that thing/ problem that is causing the fear in the first place. When you consistently do this your mind becomes tuned to the fact that there is nothing to fear and enable you to overcome it which in turn also gives you confidence.
UNCERTAINTY:
Uncertainty is a form of fear that stems from being unsure of something or an outcome. Everyone have experienced uncertainty at some point in their life. It often manifests in delayed decisions being made or actions being taken and as such one of the best methods of overcoming uncertainty is to gather as much factual information about what is causing you uncertainty.
By gathering the information you can make informed decisions that will help direct you to a decision that will make you more certain. Like fear, uncertainty requires you to take action to gather the information that is needed to make you more certain of a decision or outcome.
DOUBT:
Doubt is also another form of fear that is played on you by your brain. Your brain questions itself as to whether you are correct or not and as such the doubt creeps is under the radar making you feel uncertain about your decisions or an outcome.
These three things are inter-related and there is really only one thing that can over come them and that thing is ACTION!!
By taking action to are facing upto the FUDs that are making you question your decisions and actions. Of course you want to make the right decision or make the right impression but remember each and every one of us is unique and have a very different journey. Our past, present and futures are all different and whilst we cant change the past, we can learn and grow from it to help be present in what we are experiencing now so that we can influence our future to go in a direction that we wish to move forward to.
There is no perfect life, no perfect path, life is about experiences and driven by you. You always have a choice. You can either be the driver of your life and not let the FUDs rule or you can let the FUDs drive in which case you will never get to a destination or goal that you ultimately want.
Like if you agree and it would be great to have your thoughts on this.
