This episode: Fear is a crap motivator.  When I feel fear, I rarely want to then go after what I think needs to get done.  And fear as a motivator is almost always for something that I didn’t want to do in the first place or isn’t satisfying.  Then why do I use it?  Because other people used it on me to motivate me to do what they wanted me to do.  So, I witnessed from those experiences that it was a powerful motivator…for doing things I didn’t want to do.And in doing so, losing my own personal connection to it being motivated by other things like fun, joy, interest, vitality, ie: good feelings.I find that I’m better motivated when I can find the aspects of that task that I DO want, that I DO resonate with.  And I can always find those things.  So fear is not necessary even for the things I find I must do.I’m making it a point to prove to myself that in every part of my life, there is a better, more sustainable, more effective motivator than fear.I am making it my dominant intention to first go find the feeling I believe this “thing” will bring me in the having or doing of it.  Then I go about connecting to that feeling first, allowing my actions to then be motivated by the feeling and the desire to stay in that feeling.    FOR DECEMBER SPECIALS RATES TO ALL MY PROGRAMS: email me at  peterksibley(AT)gmail(DOT)com More Self Kindness:SELF STORY group program info: www.petesibley.com/story.  for all the details!Weekly calls to cultivate a deep connection with feeling good and inspired about your own inner narrative!Plus a private podcast and website filled with resources1:1 Life Coaching - Living the Self Kindness EffectPowerful one to one coachinga 1:1 coaching program built upon your unique needs and desired resultsImagine your life in the next 100 Days or 6 months or one year, letting go of the blocks & living as a powerful creator for the life you WANT.Click Here to schedule your FREE  consultation callsign up HERE for the Self Kindness newsletterClick here to sign upInstagram: follow me here
