How Personal Growth Can Help To grow Your Internet Business

Yesterday we had a family day out to York (a city in Northern England renowned for its great history & character).  Whilst we were there my 6 year old daughter & husband decided that they want to have a ride on the York Eye.  This is very much like the London Eye but a bit smaller & it goes very fast in comparison to its Southern ‘cousin’.  Now, I do not know about you but I have always been afraid of heights - so much so that until yesterday I had never been on a ferris wheel at a fairground or a rollercoaster.  However, the 6 year old wanted mum to tag along so I agreed.

To put it mildly I was terrified & the fact that the wheel moved quite quickly so you could see the ground moving from under you did not help matters.  The first revolution was just awful, the second time it got a bit better & the third got better again.  Now I am not going to pretend that I got off that wheel ready to go on again and ‘enjoy’ myself.   BUT I did think that now I had faced the fear & done it anyway & seen my fear for what it truly was – an illusion, that I would now be happy to go on the bigger London Eye & enjoy what must be a fabulous view.

In facing my fear & doing it anyway I allowed myself to experience a big leap in personal growth.  I survived my fear & the ride & knew that I could do it again & would be ok.  We all have our fears these may be fear of failure, fear of not being ‘good enough’ & by allowing these fears to fester & take hold in our minds we allow them to hold us back from doing these things.  This stunts our growth & development & acts as a leash until we cut free.

When we face our fears like this head on & see them as the illusion in our minds that they truly are we can then move forwards.   We no longer need waste time & energy ‘fearing’ something that is not ‘real’, something that we have no use for & something that  does not serve us. 

Working through fear like this allows us experience quantum leaps in our personal growth so that we can truly start to become the abundant, successful, powerful beings who we truly are.
