Today, we welcome you back to The SuiteSpot with Dr. Derek Suite and get steady about what fear really is when pressure is on. We name fear as imagination, call out how it holds us back, and challenge ourselves to do the thing we fear because what we want sits on the other side. 

Suite Spots:
• introducing Making Moves Monday and the focus on staying steady under pressure 
• defining fear as false evidence appearing real and rooted in imagination 
• explaining how fear keeps us from taking risks and learning the truth 
• reframing fear as a moment with emotions we can handle 
• embracing fear and acting anyway to reach what we want

How Fear Keeps You Back

Fear Is Only A Moment

Do The Thing You Fear

SPEAKER_01

Fear. Being afraid. Fearful. Fear. False evidence appearing real. Fear is a part of our imagination. And fear is nothing more than our imagination. Fear is the number one reason many of us aren't where we should be right now. Just the thought that something might hurt us, disappoint us, that something might not work out makes us not go forward and not do or say the things we really need to do and say. By keeping us at arm's length, fear will make sure that we are never close enough to find out whether we were right or wrong about what it is we wanted to risk on. To get out of this trap, we must realize that fear is just about moments. Whatever we fear is simply a moment in life. With feelings of maybe anger or awkwardness or pain or suffering. And because we don't want those things, we hold ourselves back. We do nothing that scares us. And guess what? Those feelings we have to deal with anyway. We've certainly been angry or fearful or disappointed before. We've certainly suffered before. So why should we fear that? Today, embrace these feelings. Embrace your fears and do the very thing you fear. Everything you want, everything you want, is on the other side of your fear. Let's get it.
